Slip-On Style Hydraulic Throw Out Bearing
Figure A
Inspect the bearing assembly and note the AN -4 lines, inlet fitting, swivel fittings, bleeder fitting, release
bearing and adjusting screw at rear of assembly. The adjusting screw includes two O-rings on the ID that will fit
tightly onto the transmission input shaft collar. Figure A & B.
Prior to installing the bearing assembly it is strongly recommended you fabricate a protective cover for the
AN -4 lines where these lines exit the bell housing. The protective cover can be rubber hose, such as heater hose or
similar material. This hose should be about 2” in length for each AN -4 line. Slice the rubber hose lengthwise and
slip it over the AN -4 lines and secure with zip ties or safety wire. This will prevent the AN -4 lines from chafing on
the bell housing and prematurely failing.
