Subject: Re: LG45 Carbon Clutch Release Bearing
Many years ago I removed the V12's water pump, and found that the seal consisted of a brass belows with graphite carbon ring. That was pretty knackered, but the bellows section was fine. I did some research and found this company: http://www.morgancarbon.com/gb/
I spoke with their technical department...and it turned out that they had supplied Lagonda originally. They kindly sent me a "sample" free of charge. The sample was big enough to make several seals!
So, if a replacement assembly can't be found, it could be well worth contacting this firm.
