    Tranny/Clutch Problem, PLEASE HELP!

    I emailed Mustang Warehouse and they said the bolts I have are too long, and I should get bolts that fit...what an awesome answer. I am thinking of on monday going to a nut and bolt place and buying every 8mm bolt there, and seeing what fits, any other ideas?

    Tranny/Clutch Problem, PLEASE HELP!

    Yeah, the pilot bearing, not looking forward to getting that out. I am using a new flywheel. And, the reason I am not oulling the motor, is that I dont have the tools for that, the motor lift, or the motor stand. I justwant this done. When I get a new motor, I will pull it ;)
