redmodelt,
It's refreshing to hear from someone who REALLY knows the ART of rebuilding clutches!! Too many stories out there. I wonder how many clutches have been screwed up by trying to adjust the fingers IN the car?? Of course, no one would admit it, probably. When I screw up ROYALLY, only the Dog & I know!!!
