<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>I got a Gunst bearing after having, about three times, changed out the stock throw out bearing and tried all the different fixes for a "sticky" clutch in the process. The Gunst bearing fixed the "sticky" clutch issue completely. I've never had an issue with any noise form the bearing, but I have the spring pressure set lower that the Gunst instructions suggested. I did all this at least 6 years ago.<div> Take care.</div><div> Bob</div><div> 72' TR6<br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2015 16:53:23 -0600<br>From: frogeye@porterscustom.com<br>To: dconnitt@fuse.net; triumphs@autox.team.net<br>Subject: Re: [TR] Gunst throw out bearing question<br><br>
An "occasional" squeal might also be a dry pilot bearing. It will
also come and go with pedal movement. Did you grease it a "million"
years ago?<br>

<div><font face="Arial">So back a million years ago when I was
rebuilding the engine on my TR4A (by the way, isn't it odd
that the "4" key and the "$" key are only a shift away from
each other? I think not!) anyway,, I decided to go with The
Roadster Factory "Magic Clutch" setup which included the Gunst
throw out bearing. My Triumph has developed an occasional
squeal much like a bearing going bad. Naturally, I think the
worse but what experiences good or bad have you guys had using
the Gunst throwout bearing?</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">Secondly, what is the down side of
removing the spring that keeps the bearing on the clutch
fingers?</font></div>
