Stock clutch - assumed room temp

[John Berger]

I think it finally bought the farm. And it went fast, too. I had just got back off of a 1700+ mile trip in and around Tennessee with no real problems. Sunday night it got tough to shift into gear. By yesterday afternoon when the dealer and I took it for a test ride, it went from critical to terminal real fast. At one point, I pushed it all the way to the floor and it didn't catch. I posted a thread on the shifting problem last September. The problem just kind of disappeared after I checked the shift forks. But man, when it came back, it came back like a runaway locomotive. I'll know for sure later today what the extent of the injury is(to my wallet, not the truck):--)

Time to call South Bend Clutch.

The call has been placed, and I get to pick up the pieces... . literally, to hang on the wall. The dealer said the clutch was tore up pretty bad. If all goes well, I should have the truck back by Friday.
