Use the throw out bearing for that pressure plate.

I got an exedy. I think Cusco is just a rebadge of exedy.
The factory one should fit. It did on mine.

How did you force the throw-out bearing through the pressure plate fingers? By what method?

Thanks in advance for all of your help!

I forgot to mentino that you should replace the bearing with a new one but other than that just wiggle it in and pull it through
My mechanic did it but I don't think there is any trick to it.
