marki Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Morning. I'm in the middle of several jobs at the mo, one of which is a new Clutch, Revington do a return spring for the Slave to pull the bearing away from the cover. It sounds a good idea, has anyone had experience of these ? Cheers Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
peejay4A Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 As I understand things it's not required on the TR6 (or4A) as you would lose the self adjusting feature to accommodate wear in the friction plate. So you'll have to fit the adjustable push rod too and be prepared to keep adjusting it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ctc77965o Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 I've always had a return spring on my TR4A clutch. 100K+ miles over 25 yrs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marki Posted September 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Hi Dave. Do you find you have to adjust it much ? Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ctc77965o Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Never thought about it...I probably do when I bleed the hydraulics every few years.. but I never notice the clutch wear Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 I believe Pete is correct and because of this the release bearing has to work properly. A quality RHP does the job but a cheap bearing will go pear shape quickly. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Moltu Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Revington produced this for use with a non-standard release bearing (from a Toyota) that wasn't designed to be continuously in contact with the clutch cover - the spring pulled the bearing back and the push rod restricted the clearance. This was when there were a lot of release bearing failures including RHP. It may well be the current batch of bearings is better so discussion of this has died away in recent times.
