EA82 Throwout Bearing

[rdweninger]

Hello all.   I've been off the forum for quite some time.  I had emergency open heart surgery.  I'm on the road to recovery ... and will have some help pulling and re-sealing my '85 EA82 4wd.

  My question is:  What bearing do I need to replace the throwout bearing?   I will just punch out the old bearing from the carrier ... but cannot find my notes on what bearing I need for replacement.

  I do know I need the 6201 for my pilot bearing.    Anyone know the throwout bearing # ???

  Thanks for the help.  I appreciate it.

I'm glad to hear your on the mend...

Yes, I'm on the mend.   Dr says no lifting more than 10 lbs for 3 months.   I have some time off work for the surgery, FMLA.   I sooo want to reseal my '85 wagon.   

  On the throwout bearing, I know you can just punch out the old bearing, and replace with new bearing in the carrier.   I just need the bearing # ... like a 6207 or something.      I ordered a few 6201 ... which is the pilot bearing.     Also, the 6207 is the wheel bearing.    I just need the # for the throwout bearing.     I can get the #'s off it when I pull it, but would like to have one ready to go.

  Thanks for the good wishes.     Merry Christmas, all you Soobie enthusists.

The clutch pilot bearing and the clutch throw out bearing are two completely different bearings.  Both need to be replaced when the clutch is replaced.  Especially the pilot bearing.
