Fermato Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Dear friends If any of you need to replace the bearing and clutch disc on a 1930 Chrysler Model 66 (could be for other models) You can buy a Ford Model A disc and bearing it is the same.

Vintageben Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 🤔 hmmm interesting now I’m wondering if it is the same on the 29 model 65’s as I know I went through a few dramas locating a clutch plate for mine. Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flivverking Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) Dear Fermato, The original Model A Ford clutch throw- out bearing and the collar have 2 diamentions to each piece.. The release collar is steped and the inner portion of the collar the bearing grips to and bottoms out at is, approx.2.065 O.D. The outer portion of the step of this collar(clutch side) is a bit smaller and so you can get the bearing half on( the right way) easily with bare hands. The throw-out bearing it self has also 2 diameters ,different on each side. The I.D. portion of the bearing on the side of the pressure plate fingers is several thousands larger and does not grip the collar really at all..it's like 2.75-80 I.D. So the bearing ,when used on a Model A collar will slip on completely, the wrong way around easily. The right way..it needs a to be pressed or carefully pushed or evenly bashed ! on the last half way. A new Model A throw out bearing may have one I.D. diameter. Confused? I am! Nothing new to me.
