OK guys when it rains it pours sometimes.I got everything back together went to start the truck I got a clunk. I charged the batteries took them to the parts store they tested them and said they were good.I cleaned the terminals and grounds still clunk.I am not sure if it's stuck or the solenoid...
Ok guys got a call back from the manufacturer they said this is acceptable movement they had 3 people look at the video including two of there engineer's.The lateral movement is part of normal wear and the clutch disc is ok to reuse.
Ok guys called Ken at Kublos he said to contact the manufacturer,was very helpful.I called them they are going to look at my video and call me back later this morning.I ll update you all with there findings ASAP.I am going with what Rusty suspects that it's a manufacturing defect.
Wow that sucks Rusty I ll replace it I'll never buy a rebuilt one again if I can I had no idea .I bought from Kublos in PA.I always respect your opinion Rusty I will use videos from now on to explain these kinds of issues.I wanted to know is the one piece clutch ok to use?
Here is a YouTube link of a video I just took displaying the disc. Take a look at let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance. https://youtu.be/VBmNDoqz22k
Yes I know Rusty knows his stuff but the play was way less than I thought I guessed at how much it had until I got to really looking at it this morning.
I really got to looking at the disc after hours of reading and the play is about 1/8" and looking at it there's no way after looking at the way it's designed it wouldn't have play in it.Its not flopping or way wobbly no excessive wear where the springs ride or on the rivets or pads I'm gonna run...
I understand that completely I am just gonna do the disk for now. I was gonna get the disk without the springs.I an kind of curious as to what the difference between the two are.I got the tranny all done and ready to go back in.I have some vids I have to edit and post aswell.I got the...
I also wanted to note the pads on the clutch disc still looking almost new hardly no wear at all.I want to say it has maybe a couple of thousand miles on it if that.
I replaced all this and had the flywheel done a few years ago theres not a lot of miles on it the fly wheel and pressure plate are still in great shape but what if I just go with the disc that doesn't have the spings less to fail.I had oil causing it to slip but always sprayed it out with brake...
You can see the springs move freely when you move it back and forth.I'm not sure how much maybe a 1/4" I'm guessing but it was enough to concern me.If it's too much I'll have to get a new clutch disk.
OK guys been all over the net trying to 5th gear can't find anything have to call places tomorrow.If anyone has a source for new gear let me know thanks.
