what clutch was that?

That was a 13" con fe I shouldn't have been pulling on it, the failure was pretty much my own fault, so live and learn. Picked up my dual disc on Saturday though, and got a new bellhousing from dodge for $200.



As soon as the input shaft comes in, hopefully I'll get it back together.

Thanks Andy. Took about three hours to get it apart, I figure once I have all of my parts here, I'll give myself twice that long to get it back in, since this'll be my first dual disc install.



It was nice meeting ya this weekend too, hopefully everything went well on your trip back!

[Scrappy]

how many pulls on it?

 

[JoshPeters]

Great to meet you Will... . Good luck getting everything back together. It's not to tough. Just remember to use a clutch alignment tool. Everything else is just nuts and bolts.

250' of one... flag man stopped me, I was still rolling. That was my first pull on that clutch, needless to say, I'll never try to pull on a single again.

Hey josh, nice meeting you too! I figure I am better off waiting for the new input shaft to arrive, and using that as my alignment tool. I have a feeling it'll be a lot less headache using a steel instead of plastic, it's bad enough using a plastic tool on a single disc normally.





I am pretty anxious to get this thing back together though, after driving my beater cavalier for the past week and a stock stroker this weekend, my truck is going to feel like a rocket!



Again, nice meeting you out at indy, definitely looking forward to next year!

LOL, an early night last night put a halt to my efforts to locate a suitable truck, so it may just end up on mine



We'll see, pics will get posted when it appears on a truck :-laf
