MG MGA - Gearbox throw-out bearing question
| Hey all, I had to replace the bushing in the throw-out bearing actuating lever to minimize "slop." Now I can't remember if the "bend" goes forward or towards the tail shaft. (The slave cylinder is on it's way). Is there a picture out there? Thanks, Tom |

| Tom - There is only one way it can go and work properly - the open portion of the 'hooks' that the throw out bearing fingers fit into have to face toward the engine (otherwise the TOB will pop put when you try to release the clutch). Cheers - Dave |

| Hey Dave, Dah! Sometimes I work too late in the garage. Thanks, Tom |
