clutch fitting problem
the throwout bearing tube in a kombi gear box-can it be not used as it is hitting the pressure plate on fitting the motor.
pressure plate is a kennedy stage 4 thing which worked well in
the wagon.-motor is rotary if that helps.appreciate any help.

Bump ...
I've got the same problem. I'm finishing off an old project I got diverted from 10 years back.
SSP Box with Quaife diff. KEP 2300lb pressure plate. Pressure plate hits the tube. I started cutting the tube back (I've got a spare) - but gave up
and just have the standard pressure plate and clutch in while I get it running and painted, etc. The inner dimension of the KEP pressure plate seems
to be the problem - its smaller than standard.
What's the go?

I think you may have the wrong pressure plate, ive had this problem when I changed motors once. I think earlier models had a different thrust bearing
setup.
Any vw clutch experts wanna weigh-in here?

Thanks Jonnyb - I found Dave's post. Mine looks a bit different, but I'll give it a go. I'll start a separate thread with pics if I strike
trouble.
