throw out bearing messed up or not?

Iwannagofast · March 17th, 2008, 01:27 AM

well i just got my king cobra clutch kit in and it came with pressure plate, clutch disc, throwout bearing, clutch alignment tool.......well the throwout bearing is miss aligned or something......not sure if its messed up or not.....could you guys tell me if i should try and pop it back it place or what.....i think the pressure plate probly landed on it during shipping

Try to pop it inm its a cheap part that any autozone or advanced would have. If something happens or it is f'd up just get a new one they're like 10 bucks. I just bought one from advanced, it even came already greased

. And if you need pilot bearing it comes with a kit and everything you need.

Iwannagofast · March 17th, 2008, 02:21 AM

i got mine off eday......it was the cheapest place i could find the king cobra......i think it was around 180 after shipping and it was also one of the only ones that came with the alignment tool so i thot it was a win win situation

nice i think i paid bout the same, using your tranny to align the clutch isnt fun

teal89 · March 17th, 2008, 08:20 PM

What's eday.com? Is that like a bill gates knock off of ebay but only for car parts?

e3sean · March 17th, 2008, 10:30 PM

when i put my clutch back on i had a t-5 apart and i used the input shaft for my alignment tool...doesnt get any better than that...lol

ryans88gt · March 17th, 2008, 11:08 PM

When I look at those pictures it looks like you have a pilot bearing shoved into a throwout bearing...WTF??

ryans88gt · March 17th, 2008, 11:09 PM

double post...oops

Iwannagofast · March 18th, 2008, 02:48 AM

i think it is the pilot bearing inside the throwout bearing......is this not supposed to be like that.....thats how it came outa the package......this is my first clutch change so fill me in

ryans88gt · March 18th, 2008, 03:39 PM

No the pilot bearing goes in the end of the crank, the throwout bearing goes on the clutch fork. You'll understand once you get the bellhousing off.
