FAQ
What does the ACT RB016 release bearing do?
It rides against the pressure plate fingers or diaphragm and slides on the transmission input shaft, engaging and disengaging the clutch each time the pedal is pressed.
Is this a direct-fit, OE-style replacement?
Yes, the release bearing meets or exceeds OE standards and is a direct-fit replacement for the factory unit.
Should the release bearing be replaced whenever a clutch kit is installed?
Yes, ACT recommends replacing the release bearing at the same time as the clutch disc and pressure plate, since it is a wear item that is difficult to access again without removing the transmission.
What vehicles is the RB016 confirmed to fit?
The RB016 is a shared bellhousing/input-shaft-spec part confirmed across a wide range of Nissan platforms, including 200SX, 240SX, 280Z/280ZX, 300ZX, 620/720 trucks, Axxess, D21, Maxima, Pathfinder, and Pickup. See the Vehicle Applications list above to confirm the exact year, make, model, and trim.
