Count on your 60ft. times to get slower unless you get some sticky tires. Otherwise you will like the feel.
they do, its 4 fluid ounces for my clutch pack.
I already checked it out, sitting right next to my gears on teh floord.
speakin of since im the only one who knows.
I scheduled my car to be worked on for 11 am today, well it wasn't worked on then, instead a DSM went in line ahead of me, damn domestic rice!
I get there around 4:30, work has just begun, clutch pak, spyder gears and ring and pinion are on ground, wheels off and thats it.
hmmmm
found its not bad gears but the bearings in the race are bad, kinda flattened and this little flatness in all the bearings and the race itself caused a little play, that little play led to my pinion being offset which in turn pushed a little harder on my ring gear, thus causing nasty clunk and a lil grinding.
I thought a tooth was gone for sure.
Well they called around to find new bearings for the race and a new race actually.
Couldn't find the size they needed for a 3.27 .
Well we left and said just go on home , eat do whatever, give us a call if u find the bearings and race.
So probly gonna be goin to Ford and paying high dollar for them instead of pep boys dollars.
then my labor charge will go up, yada yada yada, god life is great, get money then its gone, get something nice installed, wait its not installed yet, and it wont be for 1 year!
ahhhhhhh
I will let u guys know when its in, hopefully tomorrow if they find those damn bearings..
