[QUOTE="08mojo, post: 12727856, member: 132915"] The only difference between the RST and the RXT is the friction material. The RST is organic style, which cannot hold up to heat very well. The RXT uses a ceramic composite, which does hold up better to heat. That is the only difference between the two clutches. The pressure plate, floater ring, adapter, etc are exactly the same. I'm sure the RST has better street manners (ability to slip more without grabbing) than the RXT, but the RXT still has excellent street manners. I recently installed an RXT. The RXT does tend to grab hard and chatter if I try to slip it at very low rpm (less than 1200), but it is very manageable. If I feed it a bit more rpm, there is no chatter at all and the clutch does not grab too hard. My advice would be to pay the extra money for the RXT. Do it right the first time. You are making a lot of power, and that T56 is a [B]heavy [/B] piece of equipment! Pulling the T-5 out of my old fox was a breeze, not so much with the T56... [/QUOTE]
