Default Chicago Area ITR Owners.. NEED HELP!

Hey guys I am posting for my friend. (98DC2R) he left this morning to head to the Expo but he is having issues with his throwout bearing. He said that he will be able to make it to Chicago, and he has no intentions of coming back. Soo basically what he needs is someone in the Chicago area that has a throwout bearing that is either new or used and still in good condition and has a few tools and he can use to change them out. He is willing to pay for the bearing, he is just really far from home right now and he is needing some help from you R guys. If anyone can help him feel free to PM myself or call him on his cell (509) 230-8147

Thanks a lot guys! Hope someone can help.

don't have one but will ask the chicago R guys and see if they can find one. Damn the dealership is also closed on sat. I'll ask around.

Just mass-emailed everyone on my itr mailing list in the il/wis area.. hopefully someone can get back to you asap.

When did you talk to him, and where is he?

If he's pulling into Chicago late, probably worth calling a dealer now to look for a new one... I can try a couple up here.

IIRC, there's only a couple of ITR's in Montana

The dealer closest to me has a throwout bearing. $68.84, probably even higher than list price knowing this dealer.

pete has one.. he replied to my mass-email... now if chris(98dc2r) can make it to our caravan tomorrow it should be fine.. told him not to push it. Plus its safer for him to be travelling with us just in case something happens there are people to help.
