Clutch Pilot Bearing : RepairPal

Clutch Pilot Bearing : RepairPal

The clutch pilot bearing provides a rotating link between the engine crankshaft and the transmission input shaft.

When the clutch is not fully applied, the engine crankshaft speed and the transmission input shaft speed are different.

The clutch pilot bearing allows the transmission input shaft—which extends into the engine crankshaft—to rotate independently at these times.


When the clutch is fully applied, the engine crankshaft and transmission input shaft rotate as one and the clutch pilot bearing is not needed.
