Hi guys,

do you know if is the same bearing of other fiat cars?
Clutch disc and pressure plate are the same of fiat 124, alfa 155 etc..

Guy Croft sells them and they are on ebay as they are the same as 105tc 130tc 131 and 130 Fiats. They come in standard sizes and oversizes, but it is rare to need to replace them so check the crank condition carefully.

Thank you Eric.
The clutch is rare to need to replace or the bearing??
Because my car, "squeals" when clutch pedal is pressed..so I think that it's the release bearing..
The car (and the clutch) had 110.000 miles..

Ok

I miss-understood I thought you meant crank thrust bearings. You can buy Clutch release bearings from The Monte Hospital and an uprated clutch if you want one and the clutch arm nylon bearing. I would always replace the release bearing with the clutch.

Thank you Eric..
Sorry that I don't say Clutch thrust bearing  ;)

I'll buy the montehospital bearing As soon as possible;
Now unfortunately I have some (think big) problems with the differential unit, but I will write next days in the Transmission subforum, to talk with you about possible solutions..
Hy guys,
