Ray Wright Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 I'm in the process of renewing a noisy RHP Clutch Release Bearing in a TR6. Does anyone have any advice on an alternative bearing application if there is one? Thanks for any help. Ray Wright Quote Link to post Share on other sites

david ferry Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 You could always go the whole hog and basically ditch every part of the clutch release mechanism, apart from the master cylinder, and fit a Tilton annular release bearing mechanism. This will remove all of the well documented problems with the original release mechanism. It obviously needs to be fitted correctly! David Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest harry dent Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 I have a tilton annular clutch release bearing kit for sale.I broke one of the legs(alloy) when I had a problem in fitting it.I have installed four of these kits with no problems.Just needs to be jigged and welding up. £100 complete with instructions.

Guest nco Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Try a bronze unpinned release bearing carrier and new bearing (from Revington) - this seems to work well. Because the bearing and bronze carrier can rotate it can offset some wear in the bearing alone. Or you can go for the toyota landcruiser one. Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Wright Posted May 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 To those who replied to the Clutch Release problem. Many thanks - I'll probably go along the Toyota route - much as it goes against the grain - particularly as I used to work for RHP and sold lots of their Bearings around the World!

Tom Fremont Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 Ray, Make sure you get the gearbox aligned with the engine when reassembling - this will prevent a great many common problems. Check the archives for particulars ( this has been beaten to death on this forum and it's unfair to the members to reopen it here ). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
