RAM Hydraulic Release Bearing (FORD World-Class T-5 Transmission)

For late model performance vehicles such as Camaro, Corvette, and Mustang, RAM offers hydraulic bearing kits that include the HD bearing assembly plus all of the lines, fittings, and adapters required to connect the bearing to the factory master cylinder. Increased travel, quicker release and engagement, and adjustability to suit any clutch system in single or dual disc make RAM bearings an excellent choice for your late model muscle car.

Bearing position adjustment is easily achieved with the RAM pedal adjustment system PN 78300. Some factory and aftermarket clutches have a very high engagement point on the pedal that is not comfortable for most drivers. By installing the RAM adjuster inline with your factory or aftermarket hydraulic bearing, the pedal position can be moved down to a more comfortable driving position. A bonus feature of this adjuster is the ability to control the release distance of the clutch, preventing overtravel of the clutch fingers which can lead to the clutch ‘sticking’ at higher engine RPMs.

The RAM bearing adjuster will NOT increase bearing travel. It lets you limit or reduce travel length. Plumbing the adjuster to factory hydraulics requires adapting the factory feed line to the -3an fitting on the adjuster, or replacing the factory line with a teflon -3an line.
