Subaru OEM Release Bearing (Throwout Bearing) 2002-2005 WRX / 2004-2021 STI / 2004-2005 FXT

If any part of your clutch has failed, it’s usually a good idea to replace the parts as an assembly. Since the majority of the labor involved is removing the transmission, it makes good economic sense to replace the clutch disc, pressure plate, pilot bearing, and throwout bearing—and in some cases, the flywheel—at the same time. These parts are usually sold as a kit. If the clutch in your Subaru is slipping or noisy, our technicians are fully qualified to perform a clutch service.

A release bearing, otherwise know as a Throwout Bearing is a component that is the connection between the clutch linkage and the pressure plate.
