Hello:
I have my interior out on my TR250 & am thinking abut pulling the tranny to
replace my squelling throw out bearing. The clutch seems to operate normally,
no slipping, etc, but I do have a slight resistance on the return of the pedal
about half way up the travel.
I am going to check the clutch fork & other hardware as recommended, but here
is my question.
With all the misery I have been hearing with replacement clutch set ups do I
just replace the TO bearing with a good OE used one I got with a drive train
setup? The backup unit I have was fully assembled on on the flywheel of a
supposedly rebuilt engine. I haven't looked at it in a while, so I don't
remember the brand.
Is there a way to test the spring pressure on the cover & measure the thickness
of the plate & compare to new? When I get the tranny out I am wondering if I
can do a visual & some sort of mechanical inspection of my backup unit & just
replace it as a unit.
I will obviously do the pilot bushing while I have it apart.

p.s. last time I did a TR clutch was on my 1st TR250 back in '77; didn't seem
to be all the issues of today as parts were all OEM back then.
Thanks for any input.
