[Fot] Clutch throw out bearing sleeves for TR3/TR4

[Greg Solow]

The finger and the diaphragm clutches use different release bearings. The 
flywheels are also drilled differently. The finger type uses a 9 inch 
diameter disc and the pressure plate uses two alignment dowels. The 
diaphragm clutch uses an 8 1/2 inch disc and the pressure plate uses three 
alignment dowels. \
