On a short trip my clutch pedal went to the floor with no resistance. It appears the throw bearing had seized and collasped into itself on the carrier. Got to use a good friends cool transmission hoist/winch that is placed on the cab's floor over the tunnel. There was a post sometime back on the use of this real cool piece of equipment and there was difficulty using it. This hoist worked fantastic. The cable pulley is on 4 good size roller bearings and can be moved on the shaft very easliy with a 5 ton transmission hanging off it. I lowered the tranny about 18" which was enough by far to get in and pull out the carrier and old bearing. Had to use a drift to pound off old bearing. Carrier was undamaged and popped new bearing on and cranked the tranny back up and on. Took me 3 hours to unhook everything , drop the tranyy and get the tranny bolted back in. That hoist makes it one man job and easy to do it. Big thanks to Mike H for the use of his cool hoist.
