Hi Folks,
Having never worked on a pull style pressure plate before, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how the clutch release bearing is supposed to be retained to the pressure plate on a 930. I have seen a few photos that show a snap ring and a set of washers that appear to be used to do this on 930 and 915 transaxles, but I can't seem find out: 1. where to get them (online ideally), and 2. what order these 4 (I think) pieces of retaining hardware are assembled in.
Some background: I have a 930 modified by PHII to use an Austin Healy slave cylinder that is clearly set up to pull the release bearing towards the transaxle when the clutch is depressed, and the pressure plate has the release fingers pointing towards the engine. I asked PHII about this but they indicated that it should be a standard push type setup and the bearing doesn't need to be retained. So I sent photos back to them of what they supplied me, but I haven't gotten any response yet.
Thanks,
Al H.
