Another Busa question.......

Clutch actuator thin rod pushy thing ?

Does this have to rotate (spin) in its housing or would it be ok to put a thread on it and fix a rose bearing onto it ? I was then thinking of converting it to cable operation but putting a rose bearing on the end would remove its ability to rotate ?

Am I making any sense here to busa owners or do I need to post a pic of what I'm thinking of doing ?

Here is a crap sketch with no scale etc but gives the general idea of what I'm thinking, its stopping the rods ability to rotate that is my only concern (I think)

Hi i would say ok to do that, it does not need to rotate, but make sure that the thread does not interfere with the oil seal when clutch is fully in, ie disengaged.

Likewise. It definitely dosen't need to rotate. But be careful not to damage the integrity of the seal. Also be careful as it definitely won't like sideways pressure on the rod which will cause sideways pressure on the seal.
