Track-ready XRAY 358459 Medium Aluminium clutch shoes

The XRAY 358459 Medium Aluminium Clutch Shoes come as a four-piece set tailored for 4-shoe clutch systems in 1/8 scale cars. Their medium profile provides a predictable mix of slip and holding power, helping engines reach stronger revs before full engagement while keeping starts tidy.

What medium shoes change in handling

With medium shoes you will typically see a smoother throttle curve and improved control through acceleration zones. The aluminum construction gives stable wear characteristics so tuning adjustments remain repeatable across sessions.

How do I evaluate wear on these aluminum shoes?

Look for uneven contact surfaces or altered engagement timing. Light scoring is normal, but replace shoes when contact faces thin or engagement becomes inconsistent.

Should I change gearbox oil when fitting new shoes?

Not strictly required, but checking and topping gearbox oil during a clutch tune is good practice to ensure consistent drivetrain behaviour.

Can medium shoes be used with higher power engines?

Yes, medium shoes can suit higher power setups, though you may need to pair them with stiffer springs or adjust clutch clearance to maintain reliable engagement.

Do aluminium shoes require special break-in?

A short break-in under light loads helps seat the shoes and produce consistent contact patterns. Avoid heavy full-throttle starts until the shoes bed in.
