Replacing the TOB for a 1971 Hornet with a T10 transmission and the bearing is loose fitting when I slide it onto the trans. The replacement bearing is a Center Force N1489. When I put it on the trans it is loose fitting. The old bearing was a Federal Mogul, I think, number on bearing is 1501-1, and it has no movement.
Is the N1489 the correct bearing? Is the N1491 the correct bearing? What bearing are other people using? Edited by scguy390 - Aug/16/2015 at 3:52pm |

The AMC t-10 had two differnt size front bearing retainers ( part throw out bearing rides on)
You need the proper size bearing for length and inside diameter. You can by the bearing without the housing. Press the old off and new on. Do a forum or goggle search for T-10 AMC bearing retainer or throw out bearing. The Parts Don't Look Identical to Those Removed The clutch, disc, release bearing and pilot bearing or bushing in your LuK RepSet may not be identical in appearance to the components removed from the vehicle. If the LuK RepSet part number is the correct one for the application, you can be sure the components will fit and function properly, despite differences in appearance. In the case of release bearings that appear dissimilar, you can measure three dimensions on each of the bearings and compare the results. The dimensions should be identical, indicating they are fully interchangeable. Use a caliper to measure the following dimensions on the new bearing and the one you remove from the vehicle. 1. Bearing Contact Diameter (DIM #1). The bearing contact surface is the area that contacts the diaphragm spring fingers. It is also called the face. Measure from the center of the face on one side to the center directly across on the other side. 2. Inside Diameter (DIM #2). This is the measure of the center of the bearing. 3. Height. This dimension is not necessarily the overall height of the bearing. On a bearing assembly, measure from the face of the bearing to the fork contact point at the collar (DIM #3a). In the case of a bearing only, measure from the face of the bearing to the bearing collar contact point (DIM #3b). Edited by kidgrem - Aug/16/2015 at 6:17pm |
