Hey, i got a new 240, 89 with enough KMS on the engine ( going sr soon) but the tranny at the moment is making that kncking noise due to the throw out bearing. i know it is, cause when i step on the clutch, it goes away. was wondering how do i change that thing?? or u can’t?thanks ---

Pull off the transmission along with the bellhousing. ---

How do you replace the TOB? It’s very simple, the hardest part is removing the tranny/bellhousing and then reinstalling it. ---

TOB slips on, and is sandwiched between the pressure plate’s fingers and the clutch fork. ![http://a332.g.akamai.net/f/332/936/12h/www.edmunds.com/media/ownership/tech.center/fact.meets.friction/Clutch31.jpg](http://a332.g.akamai.net/f/332/936/12h/www.edmunds.com/media/ownership/tech.center/fact.meets.friction/Clutch31.jpg) ---
