Installation Procedure for the PDM Clutch Sleeve TSK 32, 33, & 34 Repair Kit

For Mazda

 

  • Remove original throw out bearing and fork.
  • Clean transmission snout with solvent, carburetor, or brake cleaner.
  • Using a piece of sand paper, emery cloth, or Scotchbrite ™, smooth the transmission snout of any burrs & clean again.
  • Measure the length of the Transmission throw-out bearing support (aka, quill).
  • If it measures approximately 2.1” INSTALL the supplied spacer prior to installing the TSK sleeve.
  • If it measures 1.9” DO NOT INSTALL the supplied spacer.

 

  • Slip repair sleeve over the transmission snout
  • Make sure the back of the sleeve is tight against the transmission case.  A slight tap on the shoulder may be required.  Do not tap on the leading edge of the sleeve.  This may damage it or cause the bearing to stick.
  •  Rotate the sleeve so the set screws are positioned so as not to interfere with the clearance of the fork.
  • Tighten the setscrews, careful not to over tighten, so as to prevent cracking the transmission snout or deforming the sleeve. Loctite on the threads is recommended. 
  • Apply the supplied grease to the sleeve, the groove inside of the new throw out bearing, and the pivot ball on the transmission.
  • Install the throw out bearing.
  • Apply label to right strut tower.
