I have been using these two types for years now & I dont have many left. Both have been good and seem to last forever, even in cars with a Grey diaphram. The IRB brand used to be easily avail, not sure about the FKC brand tho.

Yeap, they are the original ones that we are all after.

Timken one (flat front side shown):



I'd say the current IR-127 Timken number reflects the fact Timken bought Torrington (IR**** is Torrington's nomenclature, the IR usually means Inner Ring in a roller bearing).

<edit> I remember someone (Matt Read?) once told me an Austin Kimberley thrust bearing fits too, but I've no idea what it is.

All fixed. Found a Good Second hand one in my mini stash with the shaft actual better also. Swapped the wok over while I was at it as the other one felt lose around the shaft. Pressure plate didn't look to good on the contact area so Morris has another thing from Marcia. All clevis pins have been changed resently. Peddle is back to where it should be once again
