Anyone know the origin of this bearing? It came off my Type 9 + Toyota clutch combo.

On the left...

It's a Ford one & it's not the special long one that costs a fortune. To identify it properly I'd send the pic to Burtons. Some of the Ford ones had a flat face & some were curved like yours. Shouldn't be a problem for Burtons.

Just thought I'd follow this up... I took your advice Tony and contacted Burton. They suggested this might be the one:

I need to take some measurements...

That looks right - but all the ones I've seen have the carrier as an integral part, but looking at your photo, it does look as if the bearing is separate. Looks like it has the "Lotus Cortina mark-up" on it!
