Dodge Neon Release Bearing
The Dodge Neon Release Bearing is a device that allows the driver to separate the power to the engine from the gearbox through which gearbox gears engage without crunching. This tiny thrust unit, which is located on the clutch housing, slides along a hollow shaft and pushes against the pressure plate springs when the driver presses the clutch pedal. Afterwards, it slides back when the driver lifts the foot off the pedal to restore drive, thereby readying the Release Bearing for the next gear shift. Over the years, Dodge offered two actuation styles. A cable guided setup was offered on the early Neon models and a later Neon hydraulic design. Both styles depend on the same precise Release Bearing motion for smooth shifts. The cable version may suffer if there is a misadjustment of the cable, and the hydraulic layout protects the Release Bearing from that issue but may nonetheless wear once the seals allow the dust in. No matter the style, warning signs of a failing Release Bearing include pedal vibration, rattling noises, stiff travel, and hard gear selection. Timely attention keeps every Dodge Neon moving confidently through its gears while preserving other parts of the Dodge drivetrain.

Dodge Neon Release Bearing Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How do you remove and install Clutch Fork and Release Bearing on Dodge Neon?A:Brake fluid must not be allowed to come into contact with paint since it will damage the paintwork. For removal, since it is cumbersome to remove the transaxle for the release bearing replacement, it is recommended that during clutch replacement the release bearing should also be replaced. You should first follow the steps below; the first, remove the cable from the terminal that is negative in the battery. Next, remove the transaxle. With your fingers, make sure that the fork and bearing are at 90 degrees to the input shaft before fixing the spring clip to its position with the needle-nose pliers, but never, ever, use a screwdriver or prybar to cancel the clasp keeping the fork; doing so will damage the spring clip irreparably. Taking the release bearing in your hand, place your other hand on the release fork, pull the stick and remove it from the pivot then slide the release bearing off the input shaft. In order to check, the bearing should be held at the outer race and pressed against the inner race and rotated; if it turns hard or noisy, then it must be replaced even if the surface does not seem damaged. No immerse it in solvent as it is a sealed bearing for life time, clean the bearing surface with a piece of clean cloth and check for damages such as abrasion, rust and cracks. Also look at the release fork for any signs of cracks or bending and when examining the release fork, be careful of the contact areas of the release bearing, clean the pivot ball stud and the stud pocket of the release fork. For installation, it is recommended that the ends of the release fork, the inner diameter of the release bearing and the input shaft are lubricated with high temperature grease. The release bearing must be fitted onto the input shaft, the fingers of the release fork are placed onto the release bearing and pivot ball, the fork is then clipped into position and the spring clip locked onto the slot provided on the release fork. Finally, install the transaxle.
