Pull Type Clutches

Post by Gregg1100 »

Hi,
As I still haven't put gearbox back in the 97 Xant 16v VSX, I was wondering if the stupid pull clutch couldn't be changed for a Normal push type. The bell housing should be the same, with just the different release bearing fork-clutch assy--I think. When I get a bit of time, I will have to look at new Cit Pr to check on this. Any ideas
Regards,
Greg
Ps. Beats me why Cit used this type of clutch in first place--was bound to make pedal harder to push down in time, and more apt to fall apart---only a thin expansion( external ) ring type circlip holding it all together :(

Are you likely to keep the car for the life of the new clutch? Few people do - so providing it's going to work properly why bother to change it from the standard spec?
