Tilton 8000-Series 44mm Hydraulic Release Bearing, 2.47 Tall

Brand: Tilton Engineering

This direct-acting throwout bearing eliminates all lost motion due to cable stretch or linkage flex. The medium-tall profile (2.42" - 2.47" setup height*) makes it small enough to be adapted to many different installations. Most applications will require fabrication of an adapter plate.

The radius-faced bearing has a 44mm contact diameter for clutches with a 1 5/8" diameter diaphragm spring hole. This includes most QuarterMaster 4.5", 5.5", and 7.25" racing clutches (except 7.25" LGC) and Tilton OT-II (7.25") Racing Clutches. Maximum travel is 0.70 inches, so a clutch pedal stop must be used to prevent damage to the clutch and the engine. Tilton recommends pairing this assembly with a 3/4" bore master cylinder (sold separately).

We also stock the Hydraulic Release Bearing 44mm Replacement Bearing (Part No. TE 62-031) and Tilton Hydraulic Release Bearing Rebuild Kit (Part No. 163-51).

* A 0.05" shim under the bearing can be removed to change the height from 2.47" (as supplied) to 2.42" if needed.
