What's your thoughts on the clip/return springs purpose?
Do you think the throwout bearing turns when the clutch is engaged?

Are you quizzing me?

They are actually studs with nuts and are around 3/4" to 1" long. Whammm

Whammm they are bolts. Not studs with nuts. Unless you were referring to me. I have a 2000 as well really starting to doubt where you get this stuff.

They are studs on all the Jeeps I have seen, you must have a special Jeep, post a picture of it.

As far you calling names, I'm not the one that let a dealership put a plastic throwout bearing on my Jeep.

It was probably the dealership that put bolts on yours when they screwed up the studs.

Yes

If you're looking for instruction on how the throwout bearing works, fine, let us know & we/I can help you out on that. But if you want to test my knowledge, don't bother since I know how the clutch and the throwout bearing works. I did my first clutch job in '68, likely before you were born.

And if you're going to continue busting people's chops on such critical topics like whether it's a bolt or stud that holds the slave cylinder in place, and it is indeed a stud but even you first described them as bolts in post #31, I'd find a different forum that may enjoy that type of attitude better.

Here's a good read from a very reputable source about how the different parts of a clutch work together.

Probably a holes stole one of my external torx bolts up top and left it blank. Oh well my apologies.
