I hate to say this cause I expect that I'll get flamed. If I do send them to
me and avoid plugging up the net.

Ok there are two different throw out bearings that fit two different designs
of the pressure plate on the big TR's. If you get the wrong bearing the
clutch won't disengage. 

        "How do you tell them apart?"
                "I Donn no!"

Can say fore sure if you mix em up they won't work right. 

        "How do you know this?
                "Been there, Done that! (Twice!!)"

I got new parts put em' in and had the same problem, threw in the old
beAring and all was well. So what's $35? it's the time to swap out the
Xmission that's costly.

Let me know if this solves the problem. And good luck!
