Requirements for new Clutch

Punz247 · Mar 25, 2009, 06:52 PM

I have had my stage 2 clutch for over 3yrs and havent done it yet. Just curious what do you need to complete the fix... I have a Clutch/Pressure plate I bought a new slave cylinder straight out of Mitsubishi Dealer.... Dont know if it comes with the throw out bearings in it?!?! Is it necessary to get the Pilot bearings? The clutch kit only came with Clutch and pressure plate and alignment tool..... no bearings. I still need to get the Tranny Gasket and Tranny fluid, if needed. Please fill me in if im missing something or tips. I worked on cars prior to this just never done a clutch.

So the Bearing is inside the slave cylinder? Would that be the Throw out bearing? Would i need Pilot bearing/bushing not sure which i would need if its required.

This was JUST covered (one thread down). FWD transaxles do not use a pilot bearing. Those are found in Trucks and RWD cars.
