Interesting this question came up again as it is basically the same one I had planed on seeking an answer to this morning. Can anyone source the "Longer" TO bearing?
In another post I described my trials and tribulations with the clutch clinkity clinkity sound and it turned out to the worn alignment slots in the "New" pressure plate. While shopping for a new pressure plate I inquired about a longer TO bearing but no one seemed to know about one. What I reinstalled was a Delco CT22-1 908092 New Departure Hyatt Bearing "Division of General Motors Corp." There is also a magic marker # B41R-7 on the box.
The new bearing was the same length as the old one 1-7/8". Although the clinkity noise is gone I have no adjustment left in the linkage and would like to install the "longer" TO bearing when I PULL THE ENGINE AGAIN to hopefully fix the leaking rear seal.
Now, I don't mind browsing the parts books but if someone has already sourced a bearing it would remove some guesswork.
