Anyone know a trick to get the throw out bearing springs compressed so can get back on? Are there any books that show how? Nothing I have from vendors show the clutch assb'ly or tricks on how to get it back on. Need [bleeped]'t please. Struggling to reassemble.

Are you trying to get the pressure plate assembly back together? I use a couple of large "C" clamps to press the two major pressure plate pieces with springs in between close enough to get the bolts in place. Then tighten the bolts a little at a time working around the assembly.

The throwout bearing on a '35 is a carbon disc pressed into a metal holder.
