[Fot] Tilton clutch

[Gary Schneider]

Jack,
My car came to me with a Tilton clutch and flywheel. It has a circle-track-type coaxial release so I'm not familiar with your throwout arrangement. The former owner warned me in 2000 to go easy on it because Tilton no longer makes them for TRs. If you find out anything different, I'd love to know too. But assuming it's true the trail is pretty cold by now I'm afraid.

If you're interested in the coaxial arrangment as an option I could take some pictures and dimensions when I pull the trans for overdrive work, probably sometime in August.

I am working on a TR4 with a Tilton clutch. The throwout bearing 
failed and ruined several pieces, including the sleeve upon which the 
bearing is mounted. It appears to be a special sleeve, not the TR3 - 
TR4or the TR4A. I need to find a source for this piece or have one made.

I've talked with Tilton, and their current tech people have no 
knowledge of the Triumph application.

Somebody out there must be selling them specifically for the TR cars. 
Can anyone on the list help me with a name of a supplier who may know 
about the TR application?
