In the world of high-performance drivetrains, the smallest component can often be the most critical. In our latest Gearhead Garage episode, James takes a side-by-side look at the factory "dime-sized" throwout bearing versus the BAKER Heavy Duty Throwout Bearing Kit.
The 97% Difference
Visually, the contrast is staggering, but the real story is in the physics. While the stock bearing is barely adequate for factory spring pressures, it lacks the surface area and durability to stand up to performance upgrades. By increasing the size, we’ve achieved a 77% increase in static load capacity.
Reliability by Design
We didn't just make it bigger; we made it better. This kit is engineered to handle the rigors of aggressive shifting and heavy-duty clutch springs, providing the longevity and peace of mind that a tiny factory part simply cannot offer.
Fitment: Compatible with 1987–2025 Harley-Davidson Big Twins equipped with mechanical cable clutches. This includes stock 5-speeds, BAKER OD6, DD6, DD5, and most aftermarket transmissions. (Note: Does not fit factory hydraulic models.)
