Restore smooth, reliable shifting to your 1994–1997 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke with the South Bend Clutch 1944-5K stock replacement clutch kit. Designed specifically for OBS trucks with the ZF 5-speed manual transmission, this complete clutch package delivers factory-like engagement while solving the common failure points of the OEM dual-mass flywheel.
The 1944-5K features a 13" full organic clutch disc, high-load pressure plate, and South Bend’s solid mass flywheel conversion. This upgrade eliminates the problematic dual-mass flywheel while maintaining excellent drivability for daily driving, work use, and moderate towing. The included Kevlar pilot bushing adds extra durability where it matters most.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Stock-rated performance for unmodified 7.3 Powerstrokes
- Complete solid flywheel conversion kit (replaces problematic OEM dual-mass flywheel)
- Smooth engagement with premium organic friction material
- High plate load pressure plate for consistent clamping force
- Kevlar pilot bushing for superior wear resistance and longevity
- Everything needed for a complete installation in one box
Kit Includes:

Fitment: 1994–1997 Ford 7.3L Powerstroke with ZF 5-speed manual transmission (F-250 / F-350 OBS trucks).
