Is this a Beetle release bearing

Post by JB Racing »

hello all,

I recently got a lot of new Porsche parts and the part pictured below was included in the lot. I have been advised it could be a Beetle release bearing, can someone confirm that please.

All help appreciated.

Looks like a 71-79 beetle thrust bearing.
For what it's worth, ignorance has no limits ......

Looks the part. but it could also be for a Porsche 924... memory is a bit fuzzy as to what mine looked like...
From fastest to slowest:

Birkin race car, not much is standard
Lotus Elise 111R, almost everything is standard
'75 SP 1600 with a few mods
B8 A4 Avant tdi, towing made easy
