Can anyone help with a picture of an F type clutch bearing assembly, i have the carrier which is attached to the clutch pedal but i'm not sure if the bearing housing i have is correct as mine appears to have been modified at some point in it's history. Does the F type share this bearing housing/carrier with any other models.
Many Thanks

Evening, David, here are a couple of scans I've taken from my manual.

Hope this helps. I think this setup is peculiar to the F type, i.e. not shared with any other model.
Regards, Eric. |

Eric's scans are from Blower and as far as I can see the F type assembly is identical to the J type one. The thrust release carrier therefore may well be the same, it looks the same from the photographs.

Richard,
A small point to help you with posting photos - you need to paste the URL in the gap between the two middle ][ of the Insert Image icon, and then the photo will appear.

Hello Rich.Eric and Robin
Thanks for the pictures, my carrier is definately correct but my bearing housing looks very similar to Erics Blower manual picture in figure 54, however mine has 3 slots "filed" into it where the clutch fingers locate, was this a known period modification done after the bearing seized to keep the car mobile ?.
Many Thanks

Hi, everybody. My scans came from my copy of the F type owner's
manual.
Here's a photo of a J type assembly.
Just looked in my J manual and yes there are the same photos,but I'm sure they're not correct for the J. In fact there are quite a few photos you could identify as F type in the J manual!
Regarding the slots, it sounds like an impecunious/ desperate owner's bodge!
I think I bought a housing from Mike Dowley many years ago, don't know if they're still available.
Eric. |

| Assuming the F-type is using an ENV manual box, the release bearing carrier will not be the same as M.D,J, etc. I'm sorry, I don't have picture or dimensions. I do know that when I was looking for one about 7-8 years ago they were hard to find. i don't know if anyone is making new ones. |

Unfortunately there are several pictures in Blower that purport to come from one model and in fact come from another and the same is true with some of the Instruction Manuals. From memory, the bronze clutch release bearing carrier is the same for F and J but the part that connects the bearing with the clutch fingers is much deeper on the ENV. I will now go down to my garage and extract the item from my ENV box and photograph it. Now where did I put those instructions...........?
Regards,
Mike

With any luck, there should be at least one picture, possibly two, of the ENV thrust carrier with this posting. I bought it some time ago from S&V but in the interests of fair play, maybe you could try your favourite supplier.
I hope this helps
