FAQ
What does the ACT RB004 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 RB004 confirmed to fit?
The RB004 fits the shared FA20 platform used on the 2013-2016 Scion FR-S, 2013-2020 Subaru BRZ, and 2017-2020 Toyota 86. See the Vehicle Applications list above to confirm the exact year, make, model, and trim.
