ACT Release Bearing Volkswagen Jetta | Scirocco 1980-1999
$23.00

If you're looking to keep your Volkswagen running smoothly, the Advanced Clutch Release Bearing RB002 might just be what you need. This isn?t just any release bearing; it?s a solid, direct-fit option that meets or even exceeds OE standards. I?ve had my fair share of experiences with aftermarket parts, and let me tell you, this one stands out.

Now, installing it isn?t rocket science, but if you want to be sure you?re doing it right, check out the install instructions here. It?s always good to have a guide on hand, especially if you?re diving into a DIY project.

What really caught my attention about this bearing is its precision. It?s designed to match OE specifications or even do better in some cases. Made from durable steel, this round bearing has a sealed design, which is a big plus for keeping out dirt and grime. You?ll appreciate the self-aligning feature when you?re getting everything set up, too. It?s lightweight, weighing in at just 0.1 lbs, so you won?t be adding unnecessary heft to your setup.

In terms of dimensions, it has an inside diameter of 1.185 inches (or 30.1 mm) and an outside diameter of 1.3 inches (32.9 mm). Just make sure you?re aware that it doesn?t come with a race included, but that?s pretty standard for this kind of part. And hey, no snap ring groove here, so you can skip that hassle.

This bearing is compatible with a range of Volkswagen models, specifically the Jetta from 1980 to 1999 and the Scirocco from 1980 to 1992. If you?re driving one of these beauties, you?ll want to consider this upgrade. It?s all about keeping that clutch action smooth and reliable, and the RB002 does just that.
