How hard were the clutches to do Rick?

How hard were the clutches to do Rick?

It was really easy. I have done a lot of transmissions and Bobby has done several and its was very easy for us. Even a novice should be able to do it with some guidance. There are two snap rings that require some grunting and cussing but otherwise was easy peasy. Valvebody was easy just don't touch the electronic parts they can get screwed up or uncalibrated from static electricity like computer parts can.
There is a white clip you pull down to release the case connector to remove it before removing the valvebody.
Typical clean and inspect of planetaries and drum.
The only seals you need to really service are the front pump seals and the filter.

Guess I'll get Bobby to do mine!

You're having BBR touch your car?

Rick works on his own car. Looks like that part was purchased from BBR......in which you see how that worked out......uggghh

 

[SSPSTANGBANGER]

Like Darrin said I do the work on my car except what my buddy Bobby does since he sponsored the car and tunes it.

I bought it through BBR on Black Friday sale. They ordered it correctly this my receipt being correct. Circle D just screwed up when they built it

Well it was a 258mm they apparently had a batch of converters get stamped wrong in the fall of last year.

Chris has been on top of it for me and will have it done Thursday. We broke the weld on the turbine hub in the converter and ripped the rivets out of it.
Pic of what part was broke(not my actual part)

The center of this is what ripped out

So it was the right size? What do you think happened. Was it defective you think.

They claim their Tig welds didn't penetrate enough and the rivets aren't capable of holding the power I made on their own evidently.

New converter and it is all good now. The Exeedy clutches do grab harder for sure

Axles all setup now

Count those splines [emoji44]

Going to be doing some track testing Saturday at Houston Motorsports Park during a big grudge event.

35 spline?

 

[Justinjor]

Assuming it's an 8.8, 35 spline is the biggest you're gonna get. Any bigger and the carrier strength goes byebye

 

[SSPSTANGBANGER]

Yes 35 spline
I figured why stop at 33 when 35 are same price and my car is pretty heavy so the more axle the better.

Will be at track testing it Saturday on 1/8th mile

New tires got here today!

Notice how well the sidewall flexes with little pressure they should work well.
