Default 79 Clutch Release Bearing

Hello,

I'm looking for a Throw Out Bearing for a 79 928. Does anyone know if the '80 is the same part? Some of my internet research tells me that they are the same through 86, but there isn't much info out there. If anyone has a Pressure plate assembly with the bearing for sale, I'm a buyer :-).

Thanks a lot, once again!

They were NLA for a while and Roger was offering a rebuild service. I kinda think that Porsche is offering them new again, but I am not sure about that. In any case I think Roger can rebuild yours or probably offer you a rebuilt one exchange.

Yeah, I sent Roger a message. Problem is that I don't have one to rebuild. My entire pressure plate assembly was in bad shape and I didn't keep it around.
I'm usually so good at collecting keeping my junk too

Hopefully he has one he can sell.

Hi Jeff,
Just returned from Wichita and the 928 OCIC.
I can help so call me tomorrow.
I have the bearing and center tube and can maybe find you a used RB as well.
Roger

Roger, that's fantastic. Is your number the one I left a message on? On your site?
