o.k. wise ones, I replaced the clutch with the 3 in 1 Moss Borg and Beck two years ago, yesterday the clutch went out again, sounds like the throw out bearing again, my driving is such as not to ride

I have heard bad things about the carbon TOB, but also about the bearing version. My opinion is that the bearing one is better, but only if you make sure the adjustment is perfect so it's not spinnin

I've also heard about the roller bearing as being pretty noisy, I rather stay with the carbon TOB. two out issues with 12/6/2007 11:15 PM _______________________________________________ Edit your rep

So you mean that the clutch still works but the TOB is noisy, I guess. TOBs are cheap but what a PITA to change! I used the B&B unit from Moss on my '70B because I'd souped the rebuilt engine up and

Used as you describe your driving, the TOB should easily last the life of 1.5 - 2 clutches. Recently there have been questions about brakes not releasing completely and of obstruction in the MC. I'v

A good carbon bearing with correct use *should* last longer than the normal life of the clutch friction material. Two years is very short, and sounds like defective components to me. If it were your

Paul, I been driving B's since I bought my first one in France in 1966 and had it shipped to the states, still in packing grease when I picked it up at the local port, (those were the days) I've owne

My take on the clutch.... The carbon tob is fine.. But I experienced premature wear from the clutch arm being wobbly. The bushing wears and the pivot bolt wears. Both are available. I installed the n

Could you please clarify on what car you had a problem and when. We specify the design of this bolt and if there are any problems I need to follow up on them. The stepped portion of the bolt should

I've pulled the engine on the 71 MGB and lo and behold the TOB carbon part was laying in pieces (again) in the bell housing, a club member and I replaced the 3 in one clutch and had the engine back i
