This is why I replaced my clutch 3 weeks ago. No issues other than a pedal that felt like a leg press machine and an original clutch with 151,000 miles on it...

I bet that tech loves top starter bolts, soft prop shaft hex bolts, and getting urea grease everywhere...

Did they have all the parts in stock??? That's impressive if they did...

Not in stock, but will have them in the morning.

Awesome pics, keep them coming!

Mike - so sorry to see about your clutch! Hope you get it all fixed up soon

I'm trying to upload the drone footage right now, it's taking forever...

Florian... you need to change your signature as there are a couple of photobucket links that are not showing... just photobucket telling you you need to subscribe and pay $$ for the images to be seen!
