Espey16 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I'm in the process of putting a new clutch kit in the EA82 right now and noticed 1 of the springs that hold the throwout bearing to the clutch fork is gone. Are there replacement options out there or would I have to fashion one up with a paper clip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Worse case you copy the other one as best as you can with the same gauge wire. But I’d search hard or ask folks if they have an extra one in their stash. I’ve been through my miscellaneous nuts n bolts boxes and none of those stand out in my mind. I’m sure I’m my 80’s period I had several. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re the same part as a legacy Imprezas BRZ or Crosstek so subaru will have them in stock. I work on XTs 10x more than other EA82 models but they’re also EA82 and should be the same. I have an EA82 in an XT in my driveway now ive installed new clips from Subaru in it One time someone here said they’re just to help assembly and not strictly necessary?!?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espey16 Posted September 4, 2022 Author Share Posted September 4, 2022 I have a spare 5 speed D/R that I robbed one off of, I'd just like to find another or a pair if there's some lurking around somewhere. Dealer is a good point, I didn't think of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got them laying around but I’d never be able to go find one at will lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Espey16 Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 Ok, I just wasn't sure if these are GL/Loyale specific. I just don't want to have to use this spair tranny in the future and not have everything I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Same spring , same gauge ? From the 1800 through the 2.5 ? That’s a long run. Good to know. I see them on flea bay. They do look the same. Those break too ! Maybe consider newer stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s only function is to properly locate the TOB to the fork and vice versa, it doesn’t need to be overkill. So why change something that’s working well?
