Broken Release Fork Bearing
After a wonderful spring break out in Park City, I returned to finish dropping the engine in the C4 this morning to find out what went south with my clutch.
Broken Release Fork Bearing. Ouch.
I saw an old post about welding a replacement bearing. https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...ferrerid=18851
? Has anyone else had this happen and what did you do to fix
? What is a likely cause for the bearing breaking. The car only has 54k miles and had the clutch replaced about 10k ago.
Picture of the broken bearing (its on the left side) and my son after the engine drop... we then headed over to Barber Motorsports for the Porsche 250. Great day.
