Phospher Bronze release bearing carrier.

Does anyone know what benefits this item would have on the clutch operation.
I didnt really think the standard carrier had that many issues..

Oops sorry i cant spell should be Phosphor I think...

In theory it's probably going to work better than steel in this application. Phosphor bronze has good wear resistance and a very fine grain structure (among other useful properties).
It gets used in springs, sleeve bearings (pretty much our application here), thrust washers and cam followers.
In short - it's a good sliding bearing material - but would be rubbish in roller bearings as it's too soft.

All things being equal, I'd have thought this is a good idea.
But whether you need it enough to spend £50 on it is another matter.
That said, if it's the difference between clutch judder, or not - I'd have said it's good value for money!

Hope this helps.

That won't fit the Stag. Too short.

Pretty much a thread/conversation killer that one!

Looking at it again, yes you can see that.
You would have thought the person selling it would know that as well..
