OMG Broke TOB When Removing It!


The Throwout Bearing seperated itself from the inner retainer.


My mechanic friend tried to dremel out the broken peice from the sleeve, but it seems didn't do the trick. He isn't a specialist for imports and said the release sleeve appear to be one piece. (I know it shouldn't)

Cliff note: 1. Brought the TOB to my friend's shop to remove it from release/throwout sleeve.
2. my friend used a ~37mm socket (maybe too big) with a press to press it out.
3. TOB came out broken. I could see the iron balls inside.

I assume that I should've used a smaller socket like 30mm to press the TOB out? I searched and found out KA and SR do not share the same sleeve and TOB. Now, I'm ordering a new release sleeve from Ray @ thenismoshop.

Anything I should keep in mind when I press the new TOB to the new sleeve?
