| Hey guys, i've just about finished my clutch job now, and i ran into a problem... you know how you lift up on the rotor and stuff onto the lower control arm? well i lift it up, but it won't push back far enough to go on...it seems like the cv shaft is too long(which its not) but the other side fit fine..any ideas? |

Ya, You are lucky that you don't have ATTS :thumbsdow |

| on the CV joint issue, make sure that the knuckle didn't come apart (wich may be why it is too long). NEVER pull a CV axle from the hub end. |

| Good 4U. Glad it worked out. How hard was it to swap out your clutch? How long did it take you? Have you done it be4?:) |

One of thoes jobs where your car is outa commission for a couple of days?!? Did it on my 86 lude a few years ago, it was a bit of a PITA. This Lude is just a bit more complicated.....:bs: :omg: I guess I will have the shop do it when the time comes.
