★ Clutch release bearing of reliable quality for authentic restoration of Dodge WC vehicles.

Application

This clutch release bearing fits Dodge WC ¾-ton 4x4 vehicles (G-502, 1942-1945) such as WC-51, WC-52, WC-53, WC-54, WC-56, WC-57 and other variants. Also suitable for Dodge WC 1½-ton 6x6 vehicles (G-507, 1943-1945) such as WC-62, WC-63 and related 6x6 models.

Installation notes

The clutch release bearing is fitted to the clutch release fork and moves with the clutch pedal operation. Check before fitting that the carrier is in good condition. Ensure correct adjustment of the clutch free play (approximately 1/16" clearance between bearing and pressure springs). Lightly lubricate the bearing with heat-resistant clutch grease.

Compatibility

Suitable for all Dodge WC variants with standard clutch, both 4x4 (G-502) and 6x6 (G-507). NOT suitable for Willys MB/GPW or GMC CCKW — these use different clutch release bearings with different dimensions. The bearing is supplied separately without carrier.

Historical context

The Dodge WC-series formed the backbone of American light to medium transport capacity in WWII. With more than 337,500 4x4 and 6x6 units produced, these vehicles were indispensable in all theatres of war.
