How to check and replace Clutch Disc,Pressure Plate,Release Bearing on Ford Explorer Sport Trac?

Access to clutch components is obtained by removing the transmission while the engine is left in place. In case of an engine overhaul, it is advisable to inspect and repair or replace the clutch. It is good practice to replace both the engine and transmission's clutch components during removal. The transmission, however, must be removed from the vehicle since the engine has to be supported down on a frame. A clutch alignment tool is used for supporting the clutch disc that is being lifted out of its position. Then check the flywheel and pressure plate for alignment marks and scribe them if necessary. After that, remove the pressure plate in association with a clutch disc. The flywheel, pilot bearing, clutch disc lining and pressure plate are to be checked for any signs of wear or damage. Also, ensure release bearing condition and if necessary replace it with one in good condition. Clean up the flywheel and pressure plate surfaces prior to installation. Complete crisscrossing of positioning bolts tightens both the clutch disc and pressure plate accordingly at once placing them correctly onto a flywheel face.

Ford Explorer Sport Trac Clutch Disc

Due to its vital position between the engine and transmission the Clutch Disc of Ford Explorer Sport Trac controls gearbox transitions through smooth power transmission. The Clutch Disc contains friction material at both ends to connect with flywheel and pressure plate in order to transfer engine power. Pressing the clutch pedal causes the pressure plate to break its connection from the disc so gear changes become possible. After pedal release the Ford Clutch Disc automatically activates thus completing power transmission. The Explorer Sport Trac Clutch Disc technology uses different materials such as organic components along with ceramic components as well as high-performance materials consisting of kevlar and sintered iron. The typical Ford Explorer Sport Trac Clutch Disc type applied for daily transport is organic yet ceramic options deliver enhanced performance. Street vehicles commonly use sprung hub designs for their wheels because these components absorb shock while reducing vibration but rigid hub discs serve racing applications better. The combination of regular wear along with high temperatures may result in disc slippage which requires replacement in order to preserve vehicle performance.

We provide a wide range of Ford Explorer Sport Trac Clutch Disc at the best prices possible. If you need Ford Explorer Sport Trac Clutch Disc, you can shop with confidence on our website.
