        While I have never seen a throw out bearing that was attached to the clutch disk, I suppose it is possible. If the bearing were supposed to be attached to the clutch, it would mean the bearing had to rotate all the time, and it wouldn’t last long.

        If the tractor was stored in a wet location with the clutch pedal pushed in, it might rust together, but that would take extreme circumstances.

        More likely is the bearing failed and seized up, then when it was pushed against the clutch, it welded itself to the clutch.

        Please post a picture if possible. Hopefully someone with a 354 will add some information about how it is made.

            I figured out the throw out bearing was pressed onto the sleeve behind it that was connected to the yoke by two springs. I had to heat up the bearing and cool the sleeve to get it to come off. I thought it would just slip on that sleeve but the new one seems like it needs to be pressed on.??

              makes you wonder why they did that once in place where is it gonna go? just need enough tension to make the bearing spin in place.
