Does anyone have a source for the 30-U throw out bearing?  It is Nice bearing company # 5068.  They are still very much in business but a search of their website doesn't  come up with any result.  Mine is marginal and at 75  I'd rather replace it with one that will last longer than I will now that I have everything apart!

I asked this in January of 2019 see link below

I haven't found a direct replacement.  Might have to machine a slightly modified backing plate to accommodate a modern bearing. With a slightly larger bearing ID.

If you come up with anything please give me a shout.

Any luck with bearing ?  There is good post on AACA Taylormade thread on Resurrection of Daphane . Pg 29 -31 .

Still looking for a replacement but I doubt I will find anything that will work without some major modification.
