Hydraulic Release Bearng Kit T56 LS1/LS6

The Hydraulic Release Bearing Kit T56 LS1/LS6 from RAM CLUTCH is an essential upgrade for Chevrolet LS-powered vehicles equipped with a T56 six-speed transmission. This kit is particularly beneficial for those operating at aggressive power levels or frequently participating in track events. By replacing the mechanical clutch linkage with a hydraulic system, it enhances drivability and reduces driver fatigue during extended driving sessions.

The hydraulic release bearing operates by using pressurized fluid to actuate the throwout bearing, which provides smoother and more consistent clutch engagement across a wider RPM range. This design effectively isolates clutch operation from driveline vibrations and engine harshness, leading to cleaner shifts and reduced noise in the cabin. The hydraulic system is engineered to handle the substantial torque produced by LS1 and LS6 engines, protecting the transmission and driveline from premature wear.

This kit is ideal for street/strip vehicles, restomod builds, and engine swaps where the LS platform is paired with the robust T56 gearbox. It includes all necessary components, such as the slave cylinder, hoses, fittings, and bearings, specifically sized for the T56 transmission's hydraulic specifications and LS platform geometry. Installation requires routing hydraulic lines, making it a straightforward upgrade for performance enthusiasts.
