It is likely their customers drive less than 500 miles a YEAR.
I'm I the only guy here that actually DRIVES his car? If your only going to put 500 to 1500 miles on it, yeah, DUH, the throw out bearing isn't an issue. I've got 20,000 on mine...

ok i do agree with you, but i have put a spring on mine and it did not do a thing, and i tried all diffrent rates of springs, some that were so strong that i had a hard time stretching it to put it on,, and it still did not work. do i have a slave from hell or what??? mind you if i push the fork back (bottom out) there is more then enough clearance for the bearing not to be riding on the PP.
what is it that some spf owners have no problems and some do... is it a diffrent slave they have or is it the set they have. we have to got to get to the end of this for it seems to be a bull Sh*t problem
like a engine is an engine be it a 351 w or a 427 big block the tranny is the same , bell housing is the same blow proof or factory bell housing,... meaning there are no diffrences but yet some have the problem and some dont, there has to be an issue with the type or brand of slave being used.
i think the only way to figure this out is to have a poll.....members post up what slave they have and if they have that issue of the slave pushing the bearing against the PP all the time or not.
