Hey guys, do you know if the throwout bearing usually comes with the new clutch kit?

 

No the throwout bearing isn't inicluded in the clutch kit it's a seperate purchase.

 

any ideas where I could get one?

 

also, is the release bearing and the throwout bearing the SAME ****?

 

It depends on the clutch kit, check needboost.com they have awseom deals on kits and awseom kits all togather.

 

On a stock clutch and alot of aftermarket they won't include the throwout bearing and the thrust bearing is a different item I believe. You SHOULD be able to get the throwout and thrust bearings at any auto store. Pep Boys Adavnced or Auto Zone.

 

Yes, the release bearing and the throwout bearing and the same thing.

depends on the kit. they sometimes do. are you upgrading the clutch on a dsm? if so buy an OEM throwout bearing. very important, aftermarket ones can do damage, roadrace always uses the oem one even with huge ACT clutches.
