Icon3 throwout bearing help!

Ok so my friend gave me a throwout bearing for a b series and I have a d series. I was wondering if a b series bearing would fit a d series.

Only way to find out would be to take the transaxle off and see if it fits over the input shaft and lines up with the clutch fork.... but seriously, if your going that far why not spend 200$ and get a new OEM clutch dick, pressure plate, pilot + throw out bearing, resurface the flywheel and call it a day?

$200 for an OEM clutch and flywheel resurface? Ummm... no.

I paid just over $90 (including shipping) for an Exedy clutch, pressure plate, pilot bearing, and release bearing.

Flywheel resurface quotes were all under $40.





I don't know if the B-series bearing will fit or not, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Might as well buy what you need and replace it all at once.

Where are you getting said clutch kit for $90 shipped? Seems absurdly cheap IMO.

Fair enough.

However, you'd save a lot of money doing it yourself, and with a Helm's manual (or Alldata) to guide you, it'd be hard to mess it up.

I've actually seen them cheaper, elsewhere, but didn't read the specs to see if they were new or used. (amazon)

I live in the great white north so shipping is usually alot higher. Paid 180$ after exchange rate for a Sachs OEM style kit with all the goodies. I'm not overly modded so OEM was my preference. Ebay was alot more expensive for me after shipping (eg. $50 for item, $175 shipping + duty + tax ect.) . Jealous to all those in america who get decent shipping rates on ebay... or any other sites for that matter...
