    Throw out bearing/clutch adjustment

    My Throw out bearing is making a bad chirping sound when the clutch is out... If i barely rest my foot on the clutch pedal(without pushing it in) the chirping goes away. I went under the car to check the adjustment of the clutch cable and it is all the way tightened, yet there is still quite a...

    Few Weird Drivetrain Noises?!?!

    Ok... just installed the TKO 600 on an AOD car... at idle in neutral there is a low rattling/vibration that goes away when i push the clutch in. Is this normal? Clutch fork or TOB? Next weird noise is a high pitched very faint random chirping that occurs in all gears, and also seems to go...

    McLeod Bellhousing "L" Bracket

    What the heck is an L bracket? and what does it do? Do I actually need one because the instructions that came with my Mcleod lead me to believe that i need one. It says it mounts inside the bellhousing? Are they referring to the clutch fork as an L bracket?

    Input Shaft

    My TKO 600 just showed up today and in the pre installation tips it says that i should be able to turn the input shaft by hand. How difficult should it be to turn the input shaft? Should it spin fairly easy? I have to use a lot of strength to get it to move. and i cant seem to get it to make a...

    How do i attach the clutch cable...

    to the pedal assembly? Im in the process of an AOD to TKO 600 swap. I bought the BBK Quadrant and Firewall Adjuster... I dont like the quadrant because you basically have to hammer it into place on the pedal assembly. It doesnt come with spacers to hold it in the right position, so they made...

    TKO 600 Questions

    Ok.. so if i want the best of both worlds... (acceleration and decent cruising capabilites) Would the TK0 600 with the .82 5th gear ratio be my best bet? And going with the TK0 600 would give me the advantage of having the 26 spline setup which is superior to the 10 spline... (they do make a...

    AOD to TK0 500 questions.

    So ive decided that im going to go through with the AOD to TKO 500 swap. I need to buy the 31 spline driveshaft yoke to go with the TK0. Is the stock driveshaft going to work with this? Will the TK0 bolt up to a stock T-5 Bellhousing? And will the stock crossmember work? I found...

    AOD Problems

    Ok... so I have a 1991 Mustang LX 5.0 with an AOD tranny. When I place the shifter in drive, the engine will rev freely until it hits about 2,000 rpms... then it will either slam into gear or slip into gear. Once its in gear it shifts fine... Except for coming from OD to Drive. In order...
