This invention relates to clutch driven plates for motor vehicles and which comprise a hub having a circumferential flange, a co-axial friction facing carrier mounted on the hub and capable of rotational movement about the hub, and a co-axial intermediate drive means mounted on the hub for rotational movement relative to both the hub and facing carrier. Rotation of the facing carrier relative to the intermediate drive means is resisted by the larger springs and rotation of the intermediate drive means relative to the hub is resisted by softer springs. The construction of the plate is such that the drive means comprises two annular drive plates aranged one on each side of the hub flange and which are rotationally engaged with the hub by loosely engaging splines that allow for limited movement of the two plates around the hub.
