Team Associated Factory Team 4-Shoe Adjustable Clutch System

Description

The Team Associated Factory Team 4-Shoe Adjustable Clutch System is a patent-pending clutch system that gives racers the ability to adjust the tension of the clutch springs — without having to remove the clutch and change springs. In fact, the engine doesn’t even need to be removed from the chassis to make the adjustment. The adjustment is done with a single set screw that engages with a spring cam. By loosening or tightening a set screw in the flywheel, the spring cam rotates within the flywheel to adjust the tension on the springs. This means you can make quick adjustments while in the pit lane.
To make a clutch adjustment, bring the car into the pit lane, shut off the engine, make a quick adjustment to the clutch set screw that engages the spring cam, and fire the engine back up. This is especially useful when track conditions change and you want to tune the power band to get the most comfortable power delivery.

• Turning the adjustment set screw CCW reduces the spring tension and makes the clutch engage sooner, thus “softening” the power delivery. This can make the car easier to drive on lower traction tracks.
• Turning the adjustment set screw CW increases the spring tension and makes the clutch engage later, making the power delivery more aggressive. This can be useful on higher traction tracks

• Patent-pending design allows for spring tension adjustments without changing springs.
• Make spring tension adjustments without removing engine, clutch, or any other components.

Joshua Hodnett Verified Owner Saturday, Oct 21 2023 (about a year ago) Team Associated Factory Team 4-Shoe Adjustable Clutch System I bought one before and obertightened the clutch pins and it snapped the outer bit of the clutch. I bought another and when installed correctly, they are amazing, lightweight, nice colour, and adjuster pin is really easy to access from clutch bell. Great clutch Nitro Racer Friday, Nov 6 2020 (about 4 years ago) Team Associated Factory Team 4-Shoe Adjustable Clutch System If only their buggy was as good as this TLR-copied clutch. Works great in HB buggies and truggies too. Get the wear gauge AE makes, it’s a smart tool and makes maintenance really easy.
