how to adjust a qm floating throw out bearing

[racing_kid]

on these t/o bearings do you use a shim kit or just put it in and use it?

if its the one I'm thinking of, you need to have it properly shimmed. Last time I did one, I got the instructions off of there website. I think you want approximately 1/8 inch of clearance between the bearing face and the fingers. Depending on type of transmission you are using, you can use longer studs on the input flange, then you nuts and washers to achieve desired clearance. A straight edge and good tape measure will be your best friend.

i figured i would be better off just getting the shim kit for it, so i ordered it and hopefully it goes together smoothly,
thanks for the help
