306 td clutches - itchy
I have a 96 306 turb derv with the gearbox from an N/A derv. i want to use the TD clutch but the difference in gearbox means the arm is pulled from the front of the engine bay rather than the back to operate the thust bearing. I need to know if the thrust bearing will still be pushed against the clutch assembly and if it will still mount up to the arm correctly, or if I can use the normal n/a thrust bearing with the td clutch assembly.
I already have both flywheels so that is not an issue.

306 td clutches - DL
There are two types of clutches fitted (as you have seen).....I wouldn't advise mixing the two clutches and gearboxes.....unless you like lots of work!

Seriously, I have no idea if it is possible or if it would work.
