Type 9 Clutch release bearing
I need a new clutch release bearing to fit on the carrier of the type 9 release arm.
The standard one i have (knackered) has a flat face to push against the bent fingers of the ford clutch cover springs, but i want a round faced
bearing to push against the flat springs of the alfa cluctch cover.
Looking in BURTON they list a few, but not the sizes.
Can you get a bearing the correct size with a round face or do you have to fit a round spacer?
or can you just turn the bearing rouns ?
Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes.
By that time, who cares.
You're a mile away, and you've got his shoes

i might have a spare one from my pinto clutch kit you could have,think it might be flat faced though, why do you need a round raced one? surely a flat
is better --->less strain on the bearing etc i'll check tomorrow,its a bit late now......

I took the Alfa bearing and re-sleeved it to fit over the shaft on the type 9 . I had to extend the sliding sleeve on the bearing so it did not get
pushed off the shaft.
I hope that made sense!
It was ok to do , just pressed out the existing slide and turned a new one to replace.
But then I used the alfa clutch so maybe not suitable for your bell housing.
The bearing is in the pic.
