Spigot Bush or Spigot Bearing

[Krait]

Warren,

Sound like the throwout bearing is shot. If you have the gearbox out change them both. Bushes don't usually make a noise but if they're worn they allow the gearbox input shaft to flog about. My money would be on installing a new bush for all the reasons above.

Roger would have been masquerading as an insurance assessor. Big Holden fan.

Geoff,
I was showing him the electrical areas of the power stations. As the assessor he was their electrical specialist. Didn't mention his Holden preferences.

I was going to change both when the gearbox was out. The part that annoys me the most is that the throwout bearing I bought was the "best quaility one available"(words from the bearing supplier). The one that came with the bellhousing etc had been in my cupboard for 6mths and I thought a new one was a good idea.
