Throw-out bearings fitment

So does anyone know about these???

"From The Factory there was in fact a Washer fitted behind the Thrust Bearing in the form of a Dust Shield to protect the Throw out Bearing.

Most of these would have been lost or discarded on most cars now days.

The thickness of this was about 0.5mm thick.
It does not sound like a lot but when you consider the ratio of the clutch arm this 0.5mm is quiet significant.......

Someone will find it in the parts book.."

Cheers, Ian

I don't know the part number but they were exactly as described, a thin flat disc fitted between the carrier and the throwout bearing. I don't think they were used on all cars though.
