I had bought a new release bearing years ago from one of the big 3. It was packed with a heavy grease so that the bearing was difficult to spin. The Release bearing I had been using was still good so I didn't use the stiff one and just put it in with my TR3 spares. Currently I'm replacing broken clutch fork pins on my TR3 and TR4A:concern::indecisiveness: and am thinking of using this release bearing with the thick grease. Anyone come across a release bearing that seems to barely spin? Is this even an issue or will it free up engine and trans heat?
