Description

This driven (secondary) clutch is engineered as a direct-fit, OEM-style replacement for the driven clutch assembly used in Club Car gas-powered golf carts built between 1988 and 1996. Manufactured by Nivel to meet or exceed the original equipment manufacturer's specifications, the clutch follows a Salsbury design and is intended to restore reliable power transfer from the engine to the drivetrain.

Over time, the driven clutch on these older gas carts can wear out, leading to symptoms such as belt slippage, delayed or inconsistent engagement, reduced acceleration, or unusual noise during operation. Replacing a worn clutch with this direct-fit unit helps restore smoother power delivery and more predictable performance without requiring modifications to the drivetrain or clutch housing.

This clutch is compatible specifically with Club Car gas golf carts manufactured from 1988 through 1996, and it replaces OEM part numbers 1016360-01 and 1014450. Because clutch components can vary across production years and cart configurations, it's worth confirming your cart's model year and existing part number against these references before ordering.

As with any drivetrain component, installation should be performed by someone familiar with golf cart clutch and transmission systems, or by a qualified technician, to ensure correct torque, alignment, and engagement.

Most products are organized by cart brand and model, including Club Car, EZGO, and Yamaha. Always verify your cart's year and model before purchasing to ensure proper fitment.

Lithium batteries offer longer runtime, faster charging, reduced weight, and virtually no maintenance compared to traditional lead-acid batteries. They're one of the most popular upgrades for improving golf cart performance.

The correct voltage depends on your cart's electrical system. Common options include 24V, 36V, 48V, and 72V. Always replace your battery system with the voltage recommended for your specific cart model.

In many cases, yes. Most stock golf carts can accommodate certain 18"–20" tire sizes without a lift kit, but larger tires often require additional clearance. Fitment depends on your cart model and wheel setup.

Not always. Smaller wheel and tire upgrades may fit stock carts, but larger tire sizes generally require a lift kit to prevent rubbing and improve clearance.

Popular lift kit styles include A-Arm, Spindle, Drop Axle, and Block Lift Kits. Each offers different ride characteristics, tire clearance, and installation requirements.
