Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) New ofe in

[Berrigan]

New 13 inch ofe is in. All seems well but I have a question. When backing up a slightly inclined driveway with no load it feels choppy or jerky when slipping the clutch. Have others noticed this? In forward gears all 5 release nice. TIA Bill

Yeah, reverse will do that, even worse with a trailer back there. Not to worry, once it's broke in more and seated into the flywheel it should start to feel better. Enjoy a nice clutch, I've been hammering on mine for a while now and it still feels great after about 30K miles and a consistent 450-500hp to it.

Allow atleast 500 granny miles before romping on it to break it in and everything to get seated properly. The jerking should go away for the most part, you'll always have a little with a feramic faced clutch. The good part is the OFE is only feramic on one side so it should be decently smooth once it's broken in.
