Default Clutch Shimming Made EASY with NEW Tick Performance Slave Cylinder Shim Kit - 3 Pack!

Any of you who have installed a clutch into a newer GM vehicle have likely heard of (and measured for) a shim that can go behind the slave cylinder to ensure proper bearing travel (and thus, clutch disengagement). You may have seen our popular thread: http://ls1tech.com/forums/manual-tra...need-shim.html

I'm proud to announce that Tick Performance is now making the use of shims even more precise by offering THREE difference thicknesses:Since there is no way to tell which shim you'll need before measuring, it's a smart idea to keep a few on hand prior to install so you're not held up in shipping if you need one. For this reason, we offer a discounted 3 Pack:All are in stock and ready to ship. Make sure that you measure to see if a shim is needed during your next clutch install - you'll be glad you did! For more information on the measuring process, click any of the links in this thread.

While you're at our site, take a look around! We offer thousands of products and FREE SHIPPING on any order over $100! We look forward to doing business with you.

Ram race bearing. I had too much preload with my twin disc and couldn't use a factory slave.

Yeah I guess it's not as common to have the opposite problem. Glad you figured something out. My car shifts so much smoother now. Unfortunately I had to rip it out again to remedy the problem.
