G50 concentric release bearing

Has any used a concentric clutch release bearing on a G50? I ace a G50-10 inverted in my car. I need to buy the release bearing, arm and slave. I am told it difficult to hold them in place when fitting the box.

Re: G50 concentric release bearing

The release bearing is attached to the pressure plate fingers (see picture below) and you need to use duct tape to tape the release fork to the release bearing to hold it into place while assembling the trans to the engine..




There are "Help" articles on Pelican that might be of some help here also..

Re: G50 concentric release bearing

That Pelican thread is some good help.
I have a copy of the factory manual I can send you by fax or email scan.
Let me know if you need the info, send an email.

Good luck, they are a bit tricky.
