SOUTH BEND 13125-OFER SINGLE DISC CLUTCH (WITHOUT FLYWHEEL) – 1989–2004 DODGE RAM 5.9L CUMMINS

Street-tow bite without the chatter. The South Bend 13125-OFER is a proven single-disc “OFE” (Organic/Feramic) clutch for tuned 5.9L Cummins trucks that still daily drive and tow. It retains smooth take-off while holding significantly more torque than stock—ideal for hot street builds and weekend towing.

• Capacity: up to ~475 HP (application dependent)
• Friction: Organic/Feramic hybrid for strong bite and good drivability
• Configuration: Single disc, without flywheel (reuses or pairs with compatible flywheel)
• Use case: Street / Tow / Daily

CROSS-REFERENCE / ALTERNATIVES

• For heavier towing or future power goals, consider a Street/Tow dual disc (e.g., SDD3250 series).
• If you need a complete kit with flywheel, select the corresponding OFE kit that includes a matched flywheel.
• Upgraded hydraulics are recommended for consistent release on higher-clamp clutches.

INSTALL NOTES

• Confirm input shaft size and transmission (Getrag/NV4500) before purchase.
• Have the flywheel resurfaced to spec or replaced; improper surface can cause chatter or premature wear.
• Follow South Bend’s break-in procedure for best life and engagement quality.

FAQ

No. The 13125-OFER is the without flywheel version. Reuse a compatible flywheel in good condition or pair with an approved replacement.

Pedal effort is similar to stock to moderately higher, with stronger bite from the Organic/Feramic friction. It remains daily-driveable for most owners.

Yes—this OFE single disc is popular for mixed street/tow use. For frequent heavy towing or future power increases, consider a dual disc.

Not strictly required, but upgraded hydraulics improve consistency and release—especially on older trucks or higher clamp loads.

This part is intended primarily for Getrag 360 and NV4500 applications. NV5600 (especially HO) typically uses different specs—verify before ordering.
