[DeTomaso] Hydraulic Throw-out Bearing

If you have a thinner flywheel than OEM, you as I do need a throw-out bearing that will have a farther forward travel. In my setup the OEM style had to travel so far forward that it would drop over ZF snout and hangup...couldn't return. Dennis Q. Makes a throw-out assembly that has spacer rings that allow the bearing to be spaced on the hub. I have used mine for thousands of miles without a problem.

I have a long throw external slave. I need a longer throw than the ZF fork will provide...

If you only need longer throw I would definitely prefer a long throw external slave....
