daily driven hydraulic TOB clutches
Who actually makes a Hydraulic TOB clutch that last more then 10k miles of daily driving. I haven't seen one go past 20k ever. Before people suggest a non hydro tob clutch I must say that I cannot run a slave cylinder at all ( bracked cracked off trans). Thanks
The Bearing being hydraulic has nothing to dow ith how long it lasts.
There are tons of cars that come from the factory with hydraulic bearings.
People are only getting low mileage out of 7.25" clutch setups because they arent designed to be driven on the street they are designed to be raced. If you are looking for a Hydraulic setup then you might want to think about getting an exedy twin or triple with the conversion to run a hydraulic bearing and a push style pressure plate.

totally depends on how you drive it.
We have seen 15k and we have seen people doing about 50k before needing a rebuilt. I JUST pulled out my twin to rebuild into a triple for our 6765 car and it had about 25k on it but was just about due for a rebuild.

STM has recently been advertising a great deal on an Exedy kit. Call and ask them for pricing on the Exedy Twin kit, and ask them about and STM SS Clutch Line, STM Clutch Fork Stop (highly needed for Exedy twin plate clutches), and a new TOB. They have a good deal going on right now for all those parts.

Just curious, Why do you want one with the conversion? You can get a normal pull type twin and it will drive fine and last for a long time. IF you add our fork stop you will not have to worry about the clip popping either.

i think hes saying the mount that holds the clutch slave cylinder broke off the transmission. i guess where the 2 bolts go in broke or something.....
i guess hes assuming you dont need the slave cylinder to run a hydraulic TOB setup

The OP said his transmission slave cylinder mount broke so he needs a hydraulic tob. So the STM fork stop will be useless too because it mounts up to the same bracket as the cylinder. Upgrading to a hydraulic tob will eliminate all need for a fork stop on exedy clutches anyway. It is a pricey option but effective. OP I have a twin hd on my car and I daily drive it, it was pulled after 15k miles to replace the tranny and motor for my build. It was barely worn and had slightly less friction material than the replacement discs. I forget the specific numbers, but it had plenty left on it. As stated I DD it and beat the **** out of it on occasion, it's just up to your driing style and mods that will determine life.
A twin with hydraulic tob is a killer dd combination for a clutch.
