clutch release bearing guide sleeve orientation
Lateral - April 10th, 2014 at 11:07 AM

Hi guys

I am replacing the main shaft seal in my IRS gearbox and it has a clutch release bearing guide sleeve that I removed.

I unfortunately forgot to note the orientation of the sleeve as it has 2 holes opposite each other.

Are the holes fitted North/South or East/West?

I've got a feeling they are North/South.

Thanks

Regards
Greg

Not 100% but I'd say north/south for drainage purposes :)

Thanks what I think also but why have 2 holes?

That's what I thought.
