Mine engages about 1 1/2 inch off the floor. You can get a adjustable clutch rod.

Try to bleed it from the resivor this time?

Ugh I have this to do this weekend or next and I'm starting to get scared. Never did a clutch before don't even know exactly where to bleed it from. I know there are some how tos. But people say some are wrong? Anyone have a link to a good one I should go off of?

i see that you went with the same clutch as i did. i went and got the exedy flywheel as well. glad you got everything done. i love my clutch still. and that tranny job in the drive way is a bitch i did it all by hand and even had to lift up the tranny while on my back. its one job i'm not doing again lol

True, But Fred Jr. knows his ****, i think it was about 50 for the machining so it was still cheaper!

Sounds like some serious leakage.. I'd take it apart make sure everything's where its supposed to be and take your time bleeding it.

from what I know the f23 transmissions dont have an option for an aftermarket tob. I bought a stock on through gm.

slowswap

There is no aftermarket throw out bearing, F23 or F35.

Replacing when doing a clutch is a must.

Think I found my problem...so it seems the reason I have to pump my clutch is bc of bad bleeder/clutch pumper communication :p gunna have to re-bleed it again, just need to get another bottle of dot4

thesteed46

Hey man, just curious, did you resurface your flywheel??

Zdeuce4

iTrader: (1)

yes he did. he said it a couple times.

thesteed46

My bad. Where can you get it done at?

joshc.

A machinist can do it for you.

Synchros its all about welding second gear.
