Hydraulic Throwout Bearing Installation Mystery Explained! (2019x72)

Air date: Jun 17, 2019

David Newbern filmed and edited this quick tech tip for setting up a hydraulic throwout bearing in a manual transmission. In the video I'm using an American Powertrain Hydramax bearing inside of my G Force G5R five-speed manual gearbox. These are the parts that I use in Blasphemi, my 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. The procedure is pretty simple but I think it helps to see someone else do the job in addition to reading an instruction manual so here's a step-by-step video about the measuring portion of the job. Hope you like it!
