94 cummins weird clutch issue
ok well some of you have seen my 1/2 ton build. I didn't change anything during the swap. just pulled the motor and set it in the 1/2 ton and done some wiring. so this is a stock or stock replacement clutch unknown miles. with the 4k gov springs and pump turned up obvious the clutch was prolly not going to hold. and it slipped in 4th&5th no biggie driving normal no issues. late last wk the 5thgear nut fell off. im out of vehicles now since I broke the bell housing on my 08. so I have been driving the truck easy back and forth to work about 12 miles a day until I can fix it this wkd. now the clutch is sliping like crazy. my clutch pedal is pushed all the way up with quite a bit of pressure. way more clutch movement then what I had in the last few days or in the first of my build. im not worried about it. I was just curious of what guess's everyone has. it slips so bad taking off in 2nd its a slow go. I was almost thinking the pressure plate loosing up and the fingers on the pressure plate pushing against the hydros?? whats your thoughts?

try getting a race spec bell housing ... like a steel one or something stronger ... or something is outta wack , making sure your engine mounts are in good shape, and trans mount is good too ...
I Had to make my chevy a set of solid mounts @ 500HP .... kept breaking bell housings, trans mounts and the such ... those damn 383's have some good torque .... rock climbing is hard on parts ..LOL

I was looking at Solid mounts in my Samurai as it is a Geared monster, however the Solid mounts on the T case along with the Mighty Kong to put the case in actually solved my twist issues, so I would also suggest checking your mounts all around as the likely culprit for the Bellhousing issues. 4x4manonbroke what do you wheel?
