I assume that when you say the throwout bearing is "riding against the pressure plate" you mean it is in contact with the diaphragm spring. As far as I know, this is normal. These parts are SUPPOSED

Try the back of a good sized tire store. You could find about 537 boxes just the right size from which to choose. As for Chris Kent and his worn out rockers, I suggest the following. If you have the

Order the sway bar from J.C. Whitney! Chances are it will cost about 60 dollars all told. They sell massive amounts of Addco bars and get a very good price, which they pass on to Joe Average. The las
