After reading thru some of the threads in this forum I know I have come to the right place for answers. Here is the situation,
I have an 85' BII 2.8 4x4. I am in the middle of swapping out the A4ld and putting in a 5 sp.
I found a donor BII (85' 2.8 4x4 5 speed) to make things easy. I got the 5 speed rebuilt by a good trans/machine shop (friend) purchased a new upgraded clutch and pressure plate Kit (Zoom).
I have the external slave cylinder (new) When we pulled the 5speed from the "donor" we were careful to save all the parts and the nuts and bolts (I Think?) everything's gone smoothly until we went to put the throwout bearing into the clutch release arm.....are there some kind of clips or something that is supposed to hold the bearing in place?
I checked Haynes and chiltons for drawings but they don't show it in detail.
This is my daily driver and I cant continue the swapp until this gets resolved.
Anyone?
