nibby Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Quoted from wukkie1 hi me again I have a rattly clutch runs ok but annoying any views what it entails to look and replace whatever bearing regards bill Hi BillDON'T put a Koyo uprated bearing in there like I did recently!!I had to take the gearbox/od out due to o/d problems and decided to replace the clutch whilst it was out like everyone advises, anyway the bearing the specialist supplied me along with the new clutch was a Koyo one, not only has it been a nightmare to get the clutch to work since installing it but have since been informed these bearings are not designed to sit on the clutch fingers constantly which the stag bearing should, also like yourself there seems to be a lot of noise emitting from the clutch area now.Once this weather cools down I will be putting my old clutch back in there.

nibby Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Quoted from wukkie1 thanks for that how long does it take I have a 2 post hoist bill Tbh Bill this is probably the only time I would rather do it in a pit rather than a lift because there are some awkward nuts and bolts on top of the bellhousing that needs someone underneath (in the pit) with a long extension bar on the socket and up top someone holding the nut with a spanner.Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukkie1 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 the clutch only seems to rattle when warm, originally I thought is was a exhaust baffle rattle, is the clutch bearing the only possible cause. can of worms I expect thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StagNL Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Just for info, I removed the little spring inside the clutch slave cylinder on my Stag. Since then there sometimes is a tinny rattle from the clutch area but the reason is the missing spring not keeping the whole lot in contact with each other.Maybe yours has a missing or broken spring?Note: I took the spring out for a perfectly good reason. It works fine without.Julian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flying Farmer Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Did you bolt the slave cylinder to the correct side of the adaptor plate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
