July 7, 200817 yr Gloyale they were actually using the kit I mentioned. I know what you are talking about with the dog bone now. I'll have to borrow a right angle drill probably to drill the fork but that is an option. Anyone have a clutch slave cylinder go bad, if so what happens...does it not release all the way, gets stuck out, etc? I'll have to remember when i leave work to see if I can push the fork back more while the car is running.
July 8, 200817 yr I rebuilt my slave cylinder almost a month ago and posted a thread. Here's the link: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=89447
July 11, 200817 yr After seemingly advocating for not ever needing the *quill* sleeve, I got a clutch job to do where it WILL be required. The quill is completely boogered. It's worth noting that the car has 343,000 miles on it. Never say never eh?? Amazingly, the car runs very strong, and even with the original plug wires from 1990 on them. (Yazaki, marked "1990") Oh yeah, we dropped the trans to do this job (mostly because the ram on my engine hoist decided to crap out last night :sad: )
July 11, 200817 yr All, I have to do this job also but we will be pulling the motor, I have to do a head gasket job first. My question, When you surface the flywheel do you have to put a shim in the same thickness as the material you took off of the flywheel? Also, should you replace the master and slave cyluinders also at this time? My other car is a Pontiac Fiero, It also has a hydro. clutch system, and these are things we must do to get the thing to shift properly again. It might also be because it is a GM product, and not Japanese......

This will have the effect of keeping the same distance between the pressure plate and flywheel. So no chim is involved.
