Clutch Release Bearing for John Deere 20 and 40 Series Tractors

Description

When you press the clutch pedal and hear grinding noises or feel it sticking, that’s your release bearing telling you it’s time for attention. This small but crucial part sits between your clutch fork and pressure plate, spinning constantly and taking the abuse so your clutch can engage and disengage smoothly. Without it working properly, every gear change becomes a wrestling match, and eventually you’ll be stuck in the field with a clutch that won’t let go.

What You’re Getting

• Restores smooth clutch operation and eliminates grinding noises for safe shifting
• 55mm inner diameter with 92mm outer diameter – built to exact factory specifications
• Sealed construction prevents dirt and moisture contamination that commonly causes premature bearing failure
• Direct replacement – no modifications needed, just remove the old one and install the new

Built for Real Farm Work

This bearing serves the dependable John Deere 20 and 40 series tractors that have been workhorses on farms for decades. Whether you’re running a 1020 for utility work around the farm, using a 2120 for hay operations, or depending on a 2040 or 2640 for serious field work, these tractors handle everything from cultivation to loader work where smooth clutch operation is essential for getting the job done right.

Made to Last

This precision-engineered bearing ensures smooth clutch engagement and disengagement for optimal power transmission under the demanding conditions of agricultural work. The quality construction handles the constant spinning, heat cycles, and shock loads that come with farm equipment operation, giving you reliable service season after season.

Good to Know

Clutch work requires splitting the tractor, so this isn’t a quick roadside repair. Plan on proper shop time with splitting stands and the right tools. Always replace the release bearing and inspect the clutch fork for wear when you’ve got the clutch apart. It’s also smart to check your pilot bearing while everything’s accessible – a little extra work now saves you from doing this job twice.
