Clutch kits sit inside DEAUTO’s locked system name Transmission & Clutch. The commercial title “clutch kit” is still too wide for sourcing. Cover, disc, and bearing combinations change with engine, gearbox, and vehicle application, including on platforms that share a pickup or LCV nickname.
This guide answers: what should a professional buyer confirm before treating an aftermarket clutch kit as identified? It is not a product list and it does not claim that kits interchange across related vehicles.
Use the locked system name, keep the existing route
On the site, the public system is Transmission & Clutch. Older paths that used a transmission-system slug still resolve for compatibility. Labels and quotations should use the locked name so buyers and counterparts are talking about the same system.
Open the relevant Vehicle Hub, then Transmission & Clutch, when a published category exists for that platform. If the kit is not published, the identification fields below still apply.
OEM or other reference
A clutch kit often carries more than one number: a kit reference, a disc reference, a cover reference. Record what you have and say which object the number belongs to. Do not reduce several numbers to the shortest one.
If the only number is a local aftermarket kit code, label it as an aftermarket reference. It does not mean genuine OEM, and it does not prove interchange with another kit that looks similar on a shelf.
Engine and vehicle application
Engine information, when known, is one of the usual splits. Vehicle application is the other. A Hilux kit title, a D-MAX kit title, and an NPR kit title can appear in the same buyer workbook and still be different applications.
Write the platform name. Add year or market notes when they are known. Do not assume that a light-commercial kit and a pickup kit interchange because both are “Isuzu clutch.”
Transmission / application information
Gearbox type, speed count, or other transmission notes belong on the RFQ when the buyer actually has them. They are not mandatory decoration. They are the difference between two kits that share an engine family and not a specification.
If transmission information is unknown, say unknown. Do not copy a gearbox note from a previous unrelated order.
Kit contents and specification
Confirm whether the requirement is a full kit or a single component. Cover, disc, and bearing should be identified as the set actually required. A “3pc kit” nickname is not a specification if the buyer’s customer needs a different combination.
If a sample exists, note markings on the disc and cover. If the kit on the vehicle is incomplete, say which pieces were removed.
Photos where ambiguity exists
Photograph the disc facing, the cover, any hub markings, and packing labels. Photos help when numbers conflict or when used kits arrive without complete identity. They are not a substitute for the reference and the vehicle/transmission notes.
What to send
- OEM/reference, and which component it belongs to;
- vehicle/application;
- engine information when known;
- transmission/application information when known;
- kit contents or specification;
- quantity;
- photos when the sample or the numbers are unclear.
Do not make unsupported interchange claims between platforms. When the Transmission & Clutch category is published on the vehicle you need, continue there. Otherwise send the kit requirement for a quote.
