SBF 5-Bolt 3 & 4-Speed Bell Housings External Slave Cylinder & Mechanical Linkage

The ELIMINATOR Series

3 & 4 Speed manual aftermarket Ford aluminum bellhousings
This is the solution for converting the cable bellhousing to external hydraulic release.
Mounting to the 4-speed transmission case the cylinder pushes from the rear of the fork, clearing long tube headers while making it easy to install and service.
Gone are the problems of clutch cable clearance issues and heavier pedal feel due to worn cables that drag.

When coupled to MDL LF Series master cylinder kits, installing or converting to hydraulic clutch release could be easier.
Engineered as a system, it takes the guesswork out, while providing maximum results.

Before You Order Please note:

May Not Work With Certain long tube headers
Requires 1″ Clearance in Front of the Bell.

 This kit will not require disassembly of the vehicle to install, providing all existing parts installed are compatible.

You must have a constant-duty, or constant contact, throw-out (t/o) bearing.
Most clutch systems and aftermarket replacement bearings are supplied with constant contact sealed bearings which maintain the grease internally and are non-serviceable. If you do not currently have a ‘constant contact’ t/o bearing, you will have to replace it.

The t/o bearing internal sleeve must not drag on the bearing retainer guide tube.
The drag of the bearing in either direction on the tube indicates bearing sleeve wear, possible galling, or being dry. An inspection and lubrication may be required.

DO NOT VACUUM OR PUMP BLEED THIS SYSTEM. It is not a brake system.
Single-seal push-pull systems will create micro bubbles in the fluid and some applications harm the seals internally. The preferred method is to pressure bleed from the top down.
Modern Driveline offers a hydraulic clutch system “bleeder kit”. The bleeder kit comes standard in all Modern Driveline master cylinder kits and is also available separately as a purchase item.

This kit will not work with all long-tube headers.
If your vehicle already has long tube headers and unaltered factory mechanical linkage this kit is designed to fit. Modern Driveline offers internal release bearings for assured clearance and function.

This kit has been proven on factory aluminum and Quick Time brand bell housings.
Factory cast iron bells and other bell brands will need alterations to clear. Modern Driveline offers internal release bearings for assured clearance and function.

Your clutch fork must be correct for the bell housing.
5-bolt and 6-bolt forks are different and cannot be used interchangeably because the fulcrum attach location is in a different spot.
Not having the correct fork will make for a heavy pedal feel and a worn or damaged bearing retainer.
5-bolt fulcrum to t/o contact surface: 4.0”
6-bolt fulcrum to t/o contact surface: 3.75”
