The Centerforce Hydraulic Bearing Upgrade solves a variety of problems with the Jeep Wrangler JK. The factory JK clutch hydraulics and clutch release components leave a lot to be desired, especially as these vehicles age. Wear on the factory pivot ball and clutch fork, wear on the throwout bearing collar, and factory throwout bearing design and retention can cause rattles and noise during normal clutch operation. Some of these items are often overlooked during clutch replacement, causing frustration among customers that have invested in a new clutch. Centerforce solves these problems with our unique internal hydraulic bearing upgrade. This bolt-on kit replaces the rattle-prone external clutch hydraulics, clutch fork, pivot ball, throwout bearing, and bearing collar with a simplified internal hydraulic bearing that serves as the throwout bearing and clutch slave cylinder all in one. This kit retains the factory clutch master cylinder and includes new braided steel hydraulic lines to feed the hydraulic bearing as well as a simple adapter ring to bolt the hydraulic bearing in place. The bearing itself is a proven design and utilizes an aluminum piston for added strength and durability. The kit improves clutch pedal feel and ensures smooth, rattle-free clutch engagement.
