Otterby Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Does anyone know where I can find the two small springs that go between the throwout bearing carrier and the transmission on a1978 Brat? I can not find them anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 call Subaru? is EA81 different than EA82? EA82, ER27, EJ clips were all the same. i don't trust this 100% but this suggests they're the same part: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Clutch-Release-Bearing-Retainer-Clip-for-Subaru-2-pc-Made-in-Japan-Ships-Fast-/152129658379?fits=Make%3ASubaru&hash=item236ba25e0b:g:DloAAOSw3YNXYJuG&vxp=mtr except they're only like $2-$3 at Subaru http://www.subarugenuineparts.com/oe-subaru/30539aa000 i've seen people mention before they aren't even needed...????!!!! not that i'm by any means recommending that! http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/93871-clutch-throw-out-bearing-return-spring/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otterby Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 Thanks grossgary. I have found that style spring (clip) but I think it is for vehicles newer than 78. Mine has two small coil springs that attach to the transmission itself and to the bearing carrier keeping the throwout bearing pulled tight to the transmission while the clutch is engaged. I'm kinda thinking they aren't needed since mine were both broken and everything seemed to be working fine. I just want to make everything right while its apart if I can.
