If your G29 has the older TEAM clutches (2007-2012.5) you will need to update it to the newer style clutches. The TEAM clutches were plagued with issues and are no longer sold by Yamaha. Some would even say they were the worst mistake in Yamaha golf cart history.
This Yamaha Drive G29 YDRA clutch update kit comes with everything you need to update your clutches to the new style FBT clutches. You will need a clutch puller to remove your old primary clutch. We do recommend you grease the spines on the transaxle shaft before installing the new secondary clutch. You will also need to apply 1 or 2 pumps of grease to the zerk on each clutch before installation, then grease every time you change engine oil or at least once per year.
Clutch Alignment - You do need to check your clutch alignment after installing these clutches. It's pretty common to have to slide the engine as far towards the fuel tank as you can. Just loosen the 4 engine mounting nuts and the 1 muffler mounting nut. Then slide the engine towards the fuel tank as far as it will go. We have an installation video that discusses this - HERE
*NEW - Aftermarket primary clutch option. Due to the big price increase on OEM primary clutches, we have sourced a good quality AFTERMARKET primary clutch option. So far, we have been very pleased with the quality and performance of these aftermarket primary clutches. They are an identical design to the OEM clutch. These aftermarket clutches have allowed us to give you a more economical option when updating to the new style FBT clutches. All the other parts included in the update kit will be the same, just choose from the drop down menu if you want an OEM primary clutch or an aftermarket primary clutch.
Included in kit:
- OEM or Aftermarket Primary Clutch
- OEM 6 Rivet Secondary Clutch
- Severe Duty Drive Belt
- All needed hardware
If you are wanting to get more low end torque and hill climbing power, we can install a stiffer "torque" spring in your new secondary clutch before shipping it out to you. This would make it our "Stage 1" clutch performance kit. Just select Yes from the drop down menu under "Torque Spring Upgrade".
After watching the video and putting it on like the video shows was a pretty easy job.
Works great
We appreciate your business Thomas!
Easy to replace and fits great! Performance really wakes up after breaking it in. No issues whatsoever. Great Product! 5 Stars!
Much smoother than my factory team clutch.
I swapped out both clutches. The shifting is now very smooth, however I feel like it should be downshifting more on hills.
Thanks for your feedback, Richard.
I ordered the extra torque secondary clutch for low torque. Also the Primary clutch and belt were included in the kit I bought. The parts were shipped fast and nicely packaged. The video on YouTube was great in explaining how to install it all. I only needed to ground down my 22mm socket to about 3/4 inch since the space was so confined but everything went together smoothly after that. Cart is back up and running like new. Thanks for the video !
Hi Matt, we're glad to hear the upgrade went smoothly and your cart is back in action! Thanks for sharing your experience and for watching the video. Enjoy your ride!
I really have no complaints.they got my new clutch shipped out really fast. Good customer service. Only thing. This is a web based company only. So email is the only form of communication. New fbt clutch set up works absolutely flawless.
We appreciate your business Forrest!
Ordered this set up after noticing my stock secondary clutch was wore right out from
Being used so much and having bigger tires & lift, installed this kit with the stage 1 upgradein less then an hour and what a night & day difference it makes!
Thank you for your business!
fast, easy ordering
Thank you for your business Normalyn!
Recieved second primary since first was not what I ordered. The second primary was dented, but I used it anyway since I was out of time. Hury still out as to its quality.
Easy to install kit. Everything needed. Opted for heavier secondary spring and it added some great low end grunt
Thank you for your business Dan!

We appreciate your business Ronald!
This kit was a great update to my '07 Yamaha cart. Very smooth and quiet. I paid for the extra torque spring but don't notice much difference going up hills. In my case should have just gotten the standard torque kit. I do recommend!
Thank you for your business Martin!
This clutch upgrade works great.
We appreciate your business David!
delivery was fast. It went on very easy and very quick once I watched the video that you guys made to show how to put it on. and it made a world of difference from the stock team clutch to this new clutch
Thank you for your business Ricky!
Fit perfect works great , no hassles and done !
Thank you for your business Bryce!
Great Product !
Installation video was very helpful, only thing I did different was to support the frame and remove both shock bolts and drop the engine down vs. leaning it to the side.
I purchased the Team clutch puller and per the video had the clutch and secondary clutch installed in an hour.
Clutch works perfectly, smooth power, And it’s quiet !
Thank you for the great feedback. We appreciate your business Ken!

Thank you for your business Timothy!
Excellent service and quality product, easy installation for the clutch once you rip the cart fully apart. Yamaha issue
We appreciate your business Kurt!
I replaced the old team clutches with these new upgraded clutches. It was the best thing I’ve done for the cart. The new clutch works great. I really didn’t realize how bad the old set of clutches were, until I installed the new ones. I don’t think the old team clutch was even working. The cart would jerk when you try to take off, now it’s a nice smooth takeoff.
The new clutches fit on the cart perfectly. No issues with them fitting on the cart.
Getting the old primary clutch off took a little work though. The clutch bolt would not come all the way out because it hits the frame. I ended up taking the rear shock/spring off and jacking the frame up a few inches and was able to get the bolt out and get the clutch puller in to remove the assembly. It wasn’t too hard after figuring out how to do it. My cart is lifted. Carts with no lift may not have to do that.
All in all it was a great purchase. You get new bolts and belt along with the new clutches in the kit. Just make sure to order a puller for whichever clutch you’re replacing.
Thank you for the great review JD! We appreciate your business!
Great parts, fast delivery, and they work great!
