Urgent clutch question. Exedy Stage 1
That would be hard for me to do considering they have the tranny out already.. Like I said before. This is their first aftermarket clutch install.. They have done many oem clutch installs. Would the aftermarket clutch install be like the oem one or is their a difference?

A shop is installing an Exedy stage 1 clutch on my evo 9. They never did an after market clutch install before. They gave me a call and told me the Exedy splines are different than the oem one. They said that they have to "force" the exedy one in but scared that it might rip/damage the full face plate? Can anyone that HAS installed an Exedy clutch give me some advice. Did they have to force theirs in?
Did you verify that you have the correct clutch? Not just the box it came in, but the actual clutch itself.

I thought so. No, I haven't confirmed if the clutch itself is the correct one. Only the part number. I tried calling the company but I guess they're closed already. How do I confirm that the actual clutch itself is the correct clutch?
And they said " It will fit but it would take a little forcing to bolt everything up. After I heard that I said "stop doing what you're doing until Monday when I can get some info from the company". Sigh*

According to Exedy's website, if you bought their stage 1 clutch, it should be 05803 or 05803HD, depending on which one you bought.

you should not have to force anything to go together on the clutch. We have installed every clutch on the market and recently three exedy single plate clutches and NEVER have a problem with them. As some others said. Check the part number on the clutch and make sure it is correct
Thanks, I'll have the shop check the clutch for the part #
