Subject: throw out bearing in four speed
I pulled the gear box out of my Ambassador to replace the seals & while in
there found the throw out bearing is hosed. My understanding is that it is
NLA. What are you guys with four speeds using for a replacement? I'v heard
of upgrading to the needle bearing that came in the five speeds, anyone does
this & what is involved? I'm really missing the Ambo & I want to get it back
on the road soon.
TIA
