Default Jwt clutch and flywheel help!!!!

ok i may seem like a noob but i really need to ask this question. i just put in a new clutch and flywheel from jwt its a really awesome kit but i have never had any other clutch or flywheel so i have no idea how its suppose to feel!!! with that being said every time i shift or take off it pulls hard or kicks so i dont know how to properly break in this clutch i am very confused i dont know what i should do or if thts how it is i noticed that the oem flywheel has like these shock absorbers or springs while the jwt flywheel doesnt. i want to know if this is normal all i know is that i need to drive 500 stop and go miles but idk on how to engage do i slowly shift gears or do i drive like if i was driving regularly. thanks!


well the one that i got is the jwt clutch and flywheel kit. but i dont understand if its normal that in every shift from taking off to switching gears that it jerks like its gonna fly, unless i shift slow. this is the one i got

Did you buy an unsprung clutch? For breaking it in, I mean I just drove it normal do I guess just drive it like a normal person.

you used one period for many words, and one exclamation point for one word.

Use common sense during break-in: no speed shifting no banging gears.

^that and dont be hard on the throttle, and dont redline. I was also advised not to down shift but i found it next to impossible not to.

Well it is difficult to read posts like this. Do have to agree, proper punctuation makes things easier for everyone.

It's more grabby than stock but it shouldn't be anything crazy.
