Dodge Ram 3500 Release Bearing

Dodge Ram 3500 Release Bearing allows the driver to interrupt engine torque fast so that gear shifts remain smooth and the heavy truck does not damage its transmission. This little bearing sits on the clutch housing. When the clutch pedal presses down, it moves along a hollow shaft. It pushes against the pressure-plate springs, thus freeing the clutch disc. This halts the flow of power until the pedal is released. The Ram 3500 manuals come in two operating styles, hydraulic slave cylinder-operated and cable-pulled, although they have the same pressure on, pressure off action. Wear occurs from constant contact, misadjusted cables, contaminated seals, or rough driving habits like riding the pedal. Once damaged, the Release Bearing will broadcast trouble with rattling sounds, pedal vibration, stiff engagement, and hard shifting. If you are a fan of Dodge, you know how crucial it is to replace a worn Release Bearing quickly. A failed unit can damage the flywheel, disc, and plate. To ensure factory-feel transfer from clutch to Release Bearing for every Dodge Ram 3500 clutch, use factory spec thickness, which also keeps high mileage Ram 3500 shifting confidently. The Release Bearing is essential for optimal performance.
