Hey guys,
looking to buy a ranger for my girlfriend and one of her dads friends has what i believe is a 95 with a 4.0 2WD with what should be a M50D-R1 manual tranny for 500 bucks but says it needs a new throwout bearing.... Now what does replacing a throwout bearing involve?
Surfin the web i found out that a throwout bearing can also be called a clutch release bearing. And a few places said i should replace the slave cylinder with it. At autozone and advance auto i can buy a slave assembly that says it includes a clutch bearing with it... is this what i need? and is there anything else i should be replacing with the bearing and slave cylinder? (and do i really need to replace both or can i get away with just replacing the bearing cuz i can buy one of those by itself as well....?)
thanks
