I purchased a complete kit for rebuilding the throw out bearing shaft on my
82 air cooled Westy from GoWesty.  It wasn't listed on their site, but when
I called they found it for me.

Subject: CLutch rebuilding (parts) Re: DIY Clutch centering tool?

The centering tool  is the least of your problems.
There are several other detail that you should not over look.
I need to rebuild a clutch myself.  Its chattered all its life.
Flywheel is being cut as you read this, (thanks Walt).
The last years, it has been dragging.  I'm replacing the
engine soon, and I need a pilot bearing and its seal,
and a kit to rebuild the throw out bearing shaft.
Any sources for this as a complete kit?  These parts
are critical to make the clutch work smooth.

  Hey Boston Bob.  What do you use for those
pilot bearing seals.?
