FAQ
Is this truly tow-friendly for heavy trailers?Yes. The full-ceramic, sprung-hub discs and 3600-lb diaphragm plate provide strong holding power and heat capacity for heavy tow. Use proper gearing to manage EGT and driveline shock.
Does it work on both 5.9L and 6.7L Cummins?
Yes—if your truck is 2005.5–2018 with the G56 6-speed, this kit covers both 5.9L (late-2005) and 6.7L (2007.5+) models.
Do I need to upgrade the hydraulics?
It’s strongly recommended. Many G56 trucks see better release and pedal consistency with the HYDX.750 assembly.
Is this SFI approved?
The kit uses billet and SFI-friendly components and is noted by vendors as suitable for occasional competition. Always verify the current certification details with South Bend if required for your class.
Will it fit my NV5600?
No. This kit is specifically for the G56. For NV5600 or NV4500 applications, see our NV-series clutch categories.
