FAQ
What does the ACT PB1013 pilot bushing or bearing do?
It supports the end of the transmission input shaft, seating in the end of the crankshaft or the center of the flywheel depending on the vehicle, so the input shaft stays centered and stable.
Is this part sold individually?
Yes, it is sold as a single replacement pilot component and is not part of a full clutch kit.
Does this pilot component require the stock unit to be pressed out first?
Yes. The original pilot bushing or bearing must be removed from the crankshaft or flywheel bore before installing this replacement; see the linked installation instructions for the full procedure.
What vehicles is the PB1013 confirmed to fit?
The PB1013 fits the 1979-1995 Mazda RX-7 across its GS, GSL, GSL-SE, GTU, GXL, Turbo, and other trims, and the 2004-2011 Mazda RX-8 across its Base, Grand Touring, R3, Shinka, Sport, and Touring trims. See the Vehicle Applications list above to confirm the exact year, make, model, and trim.
