Re: Steering throw-out bearing
Got the bearing carrier all straightened out and it slides good across the tube, the carrier slides fine when pulling the lever, the clutch plates dimensions are within specs, cleaned them up and put them back in, just got the final drive put back, now to adjust the carrier..

Re: Steering throw-out bearing

Re: Steering throw-out bearing
I am having some metal plugs turned down on a lathe to the same diameter as the tube, the plugs will be rested against the tube and will have the pulley pull the cam out, those plugs will go through the tube for more clearance while the cam comes out.

Re: Steering throw-out bearing
I will get some pictures tomorrow, I do notice the difference between my cam and the cam on the video and some that I found on E bay, mine has ridges, kind of hollowed out, the video and eBay’s has a canister look, guess that is a different style..

Re: Steering throw-out bearing
The bearing carrier only turns back and forth on the tube about one quarter of a turn, been trying to get it to turn more, the tube maybe have a dent or something..

Re: Steering throw-out bearing
The tube looks ok, I wasn’t planning on removing the tube, used up quite a bit of PB Blaster for the whole thing, it helped a lot, but still can’t get the cam and carrier out..

Re: Steering throw-out bearing
Still can’t get the cam and carrier out, had the pulley pull all the way flush with the other shaft and hoping I could get a small pry bar behind the cam but no go, can’t use the pulley any further..

Re: Steering throw-out bearing
Sprayed PB Blaster under the carrier shaft, put longer bolts down the groove and worked it with some vise grips, it’s moving now… think I’ll have it out soon..
