The gudgeon pin or wrist pin (as it is called in the US), connects the piston to the connecting rod and provides a bearing for the connecting rod to pivot upon as the piston moves.
A piston thrust bearing is a type of bearing designed to support the axial loads generated by the movement of a piston in an engine or machinery. It allows for smooth rotational motion while accommodating the thrust forces acting along the piston’s axis. Typically made from durable materials such as bronze or composite materials, these bearings ensure efficient operation, reduce friction, and enhance the longevity of the components they support. They are essential in applications where high loads and precise alignment are critical.
To replace a throw out bearing in any car or truck you must remove the gearbox, then remove the clutch, then pull the bearing out of the flywheel and replace it. Assemble in reverse order.
