Finding Throwout/Clutch Release Bearing To Buy
 
I'm doing a clutch job on my 06 SS/SC and I've dropped the transmission.
I ordered the GM11-HDSS kit from ACT. For $1k you think they'd include a throwout/clutch release bearing, but I guess not.
The one I currently have is busted. Where can I find one of these for a decent price? Last resort is the dealership.
My local auto parts stores are like clueless..

Only option is dealership, they arent' bad, under $100 usually. Get the little tube that connects it to the clutch line, GM parts calls it the 'clutch pipe'. Replace it while you have it out, don't wanna end up droppin the trans again for a $9 part.

I just got a quote from my dealer and they said $134.

2.0 LSJ Clutch Bearing - Cylinder 12583857 - Crate Engine Depot - This is the same part, right?

Cobalt Clutch Pipe 24422067 - Crate Engine Depot - Pipe you're talking about?

Yeah, that's what you need.

Get the lnf throwout bearing instead, it's cheaper and better than the lsj one. When I had my clutch replaced I had the lnf throwout bearing put in plus had a new clutch pipe put in as well.

I cheated and had ZZP put in a upgraded TOB when they did mine, it's like 80 i think on their site.

The ZZP one is just a stock LNF one.

Well that works then, it's only like 80 bucks and it's well worth it. Plan on vac bleeding the clutch though, otherwise kiss the master cyl goodbye.

Thanks for the suggestions, guys. Just going to pick up the parts at my dealership, since they're isn't much price difference between them and CED.
Just have to wait for my ACT clutch kit to come in the mail, which is shipping tomorrow.

And I won't, lol. I'm following the instructions right from the GM manual.
