    Hi, I'm hoping someone can tell me the application of this bearing. I found only a couple matches on the Interwebs that merely confirm that it's a clutch release bearing.
    It's NOS, the surface rust doesn't seem to affect its operation.

    Bore is 1.575", or right on 40mm.

    Thanks.

    For some reason, the first image isn't showing up (although it does on the Preview), hopefully it will here:

    I emailed the KML company when I posted this, never heard back from them.
    Pretty poor PR.

    Google "bearing interchange 22007" (if I read the number correctly) and you'll get a bunch of hits. Many times the same bearing numbers are used by more than one company, and you might find identical bearings with the same part number from several mfrs. If that fails, there are cross reference charts that will show bearing numbers for other companies. A cursory glance showed this might be a Toyota part but I'll leave the deep research to you.
    That being said, I would be reluctant to use this, especially as a throw-out bearing. It looks like it would be hard to see the race and balls and inspect them closely. I'd sure hate to pull a trans a second time because I tried to save $20 by using an old part. I've seen me do it. And I didn't look happy.

    I have 6 different TO bearings for the same bellhousing and transmissions.. All that matters is the ID to slide on the trans collar, the OD and surface that touches the pressure plate (2 different ones), the length, and the slot diameter for the fork.
    You are showing one photo and stating one dimension. More info is needed.

    The picture is not very good, and the number is upside down. It really is T40022, and I certainly have checked into lots of interchange sites, ebay etc. for a match. Ebay actually has a product ID no. for it (856243087), but gives no details.

    I didn't include the other bearing dimensions as the ID is the only critical one. Height is important, but not a precise value, and OD of a throwout bearing is just clearance as it doesn't contact anything.

    But here they are:

    Height: 0.78"
    OD: 2.65"

    Edit:
    I searched some more and found an SKF part number (VKC 3502) interchange on Alibaba.
    So I was able to search on SKF's site to discover that, as Brando suggested, it's a Toyota part for various '79 to '90 Toyota cars and trucks. Oh well, at least now I know I don't need it.

    Thanks for the responses, it encouraged me to persevere.
