[QUOTE="006, post: 13006800, member: 5015"] BCA makes most of the bearings you'll find in stores including Ford/FRPP The reason I like the Timken bearings is they are perfectly balanced and do not oscillate or wobble when you spin/rotate the front part while you hold the rear part that clips into the fork. Another reason is the housing stays cooler than the steel housed bearings. since heat build up causes them to dry out sooner. The BCA ones are also available at your local oreilly and other stores: [url=http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/BCA0/614014/01330.oap?year=2003&make=Ford&model=Mustang&vi=1410578&ck=Search_01330_1410578_3010&pt=01330&ppt=C0015]National 614014 - Ball Bearing | O'Reilly Auto Parts[/url] Should your TOB begin to squeak, the BCA and Timken TOBs can be re-greased by applying additional grease to the input shaft's sleeve. The opening at the front of the TOB will "suck up" the grease on the sleeve. See below pics for reference. First harbor freight mini grease gun 3 Oz. Mini Grease Gun 93486 (part #) Hoses as shown in photos. I picked them up from a local autozone or pep boys (i think), or harbor freight might have some available. Honda Grease as you see in that thread above OR, WHITE LITHIUM GREASE Instructions: Unscrew the grease gun and jam grease into the chamber. Pack the grease tight in order to remove all vacuum. Assemble the grease gun, flexible hose and needle point. Pump grease gun until grease begins to squirt out of the needle point. Jack up the car Support the car on jack stands. (Multiple ones for safety) Remove retainer screw from the clutch lever door access cover. Remove cover and locate the TOB Grease areas shown in the photos (Timken TOB shown). The BCA TOB (Ford OEM/FRPP HD TOB) can be seen in the photo with the measuring tape in the pic. Careful not to get the grease at the front area of the TOB where the PP makes contact. Repeat process in a week and repeat anytime you hear a chirp or get a vibration in the pedal.

The grease WILL get sucked into the bearings everytime you shift. Add some to the sleeve that the TOB glides back and forth on, to make sure it doesn't get scuffed up over time. [IMG]http://i64.tinypic.com/5vsso8.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i68.tinypic.com/161yhps.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/23t4jz5.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i63.tinypic.com/2unzqt1.jpg[/IMG] Doing this while the transmission is bolted up to the vehicle is a royal bitch, BUT you can get the grease onto the sleeve where it will get pulled in when the fork moves the tob back and forth. Grease I recommend: Honda Super tigh temp grease. Part # 08798-9002 $12-13 retail.
