Throw out bearing

[Farmer]

I have a NEW centerforce stage one clutch and got the bearing to go with it. Now its been about 16 years since I've changed out a clutch on my old 620. I dont remember having to press off or press on the actual bearing onto the part where the clutch fork slips over. The bearing from centerforce is just the bearing by itself. Any help would be great

Likewise. I had a centerforce on my 280 motor and I don't recall having to press anything on at all.

Yes you do. Or you can set the collar into a vice and fit a socket into the opening between the collar and the bearing...use a rubber mallet and a piece of cloth and tap it out.

Rubber mallet and cloth? You're too kind with it Dave. :lol: If removing, it's the old one.... beat it with a hammer!!!

 

Be sure to pack the new one with grease and fill the cavity inside the collar too.

All righty then beat on the brat with a baseball bat.

 

 

Mike says" pack the new one with grease and fill the cavity " thats what I do!

Wouldn't ANY brand throwout bearing require the same installation?

Groan, forgot who I was dealing with. I asked for that!

[phatdave]

Couldn't resist Mike. Do you want some pix of that tailgate I told you about?

 

 

 

And as far as the T.O. bearing goes...Like Mike and I said just drive it out with a deep well socket that fits in the....Er..Hole.
