 |
|
So I have a Issue with the Trans & Motor fitting together due to the fact the Sleeve wont slide into the Clutch Release Ring, What can I do to Fix this Issue? Can I bore out the Release ring so it fits over the sleeve? Or will that cause balance issues??? Any Help Would Be Mucho Appreciated....
Thanks

if you have a sleeve you do not need the ring on the pressure plate. It is removable on the Kennedy clutches.

What about the springs that hold the ring onto the clutch?

| In that case the thingy is held on by the little springs, you can just pull them back and remove the plate.....easy, now it is converted to fit late models! |
