Product Details

When you're getting ready to replace your clutch or rebuild the transmission on your Jeep, don't forget about the crankshaft pilot bearing. This small but crucial part sits in the end of the crankshaft and supports the transmission's input shaft. It's essential for smooth clutch operation and preventing premature wear on your transmission's input shaft and your clutch disc.

This pilot bearing from Omix is built to OE style specifications, meaning it's made to fit and function just like the original part. It's constructed from metal for durability and is designed as a direct fit for a range of Jeep models from the early 80s to mid-80s, including popular vehicles like the CJ5, CJ7, Cherokee XJ, and J-Series trucks. The bearing measures .535 inches on the inside and 0.998 inches on the outside, fitting engines from 4.2L up to 5.9L.

Replacing this bearing is a straightforward job when the transmission is out, and it's a smart move to do it during any clutch service. It's a well-built part that will help ensure your clutch system operates smoothly for miles to come.
