Here is the latest on the clutch issue. Dropped it again and come to find out the 8 bolts that hold the clutch on the flywheel and the 8 bolts that hold the shifters in the tranny and case are the same except the trans and case are about a quarter of an inch longer. Needless to say my buddy put the bolts from the trans and case on the clutch. Since they were longer they were bottoming out therefore not tightening as much as it should resulting in not enough pressure on the plate. Bonehead mistake. Both sets have 8 and are 12mm. ALWAYS SEPERATE YOUR BOLTS INTO SECTIONS!!!!!! And it helps not having a wife calling every 20min asking when your going to be done!

  yea i can relate  well till i got my divorce anyway

he did drop the tranny again

That's what I meant.  The bolt issue was the simple part. Having to pull the tranny was the suck part.
