20mm Clutch Cross Shaft Bush Kit - T1, KG, T3 (1973-79) + T2 (1976-79) + T25 (All Years) - With Bronze Bush

Upgrade your clutch system with this heavy-duty clutch cross shaft repair kit, featuring uprated bronze bushes for improved strength, durability and smoother operation. Designed for models with a 20mm diameter clutch cross shaft, this kit is ideal for both standard rebuilds and higher load applications.

The clutch cross shaft transfers pedal movement to the release bearing. Standard plastic or softer bushes can wear quickly, leading to excessive play, uneven clutch engagement, noise or a stiff pedal. These uprated bronze bushes provide a tighter, longer-lasting bearing surface, reducing wear and maintaining accurate clutch operation over time.

Bronze bushes are especially beneficial on vehicles that see frequent use, higher mileage or upgraded clutch assemblies, as they better resist deformation and wear compared to standard materials.

This kit includes everything required to rebuild the shaft assembly, including bronze bushes, washers, circlips and return spring. On T25 models with hydraulic clutch systems, the return spring is typically not required.
