S4s clutch release bearing

[Barrykearley 7,180]

Yes it is - but the clutch is different on the s4s and S300

What's the difference between the two bearing assemblies, length-wise?

 

[Barrykearley 7,180]

It’s about 5mm longer on the nose. The spacer shim is just so the bearing fits in the same shell as the standard one.

I imagine 5mm translates into more than that at the slave cylinder end. I wonder whether the slave would be within its operating window with a plus of minus 5mm at the crank centreline?

I need to find the little rod - I know I had that somewhere safe which has translated into lost. 

Was looking at the bar in my tap set earlier and thinking that looked absolutely perfect for the application ?

It’s 85 and 130 between the bearing centre and the pushrod point in the release arm so by that, the 5mm translates into 8mm-ish at the slave end.

If you can’t  find the push rod, I’m sure the dimensions are on TLF somewhere.

Push rod is 100mm on S4s.

Very good thread!
