Using this clutch pressure plate is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is turned off and parked safely. Locate the old pressure plate and carefully remove it following the standard procedures in your vehicle's repair manual. Then, install the new ACT pressure plate in its place. When installing, ensure all bolts are tightened properly to avoid any loosening during operation. As for maintenance, it's a good idea to check the pressure plate periodically, especially if you use your vehicle for racing or heavy - duty driving. Look for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any unusual noises or a decrease in clutch performance, it's time to have it inspected. Also, keep the pressure plate clean to prevent dirt and debris from affecting its operation.
