Good luck with getting it resolved.

I've recently installed a HTOB (Hydraulic Throw-Out Slave/bearing) on my TKO 600. And I made sure I "measured twice and cut once" to get everything setup correctly. I was not pleased with the conical shimming washers that came with the HTOB. So after taking all the measurements I machined a solid metal spacer and tossed the washers.

I also made sure that the bleed line pointed up so that all air would collect at the top and evacuate when bled. I drilled a hole in the top of the bellhousing for the bleed line and welded a steel shroud to hold the bleed line firm and vertical. Bleed valve in the top of the hose made bleeding a one man operation with 100% success.

Have fun,

Arthur
