just ordered my adapter to the ax15 trans a few minutes ago from koch cant wait to get it. i go to the yard tommorow to get the 2wd jeep trans. the owner of the yard is a good friend of mine (i worked thewre for a while) so i worked a deal with him to trade my 2.2 and five speed for all the jeep stuff i need (trans, flywheel, clutch, slave cylinder, drive shaft, starter ect. painting the motor this weekend and valve cover gasket should be here tomorrow. all going well so far.:jump:

I put my post on benzworld and the purists already dinged me :argh::argh: I wish that that site was more like this one here

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

so I have my slave all installed but I am wondering should the rod for the slave cyl have just a little play or should it be tight in other words should the throw out bearing turn when the clutch is not depressed or should it turn

on every hydraulic clutch ive ever worked on the slave always kept some pressure on the rod to the clutch fork

just pulled the trans and other needed items from my 2wd jeep 5sp donor vehicle. discovered that the reason that the truck was there is because of the clutch being shot. darn i was hoping it was good just to get me by for a while, luckaly autozone has one in stock ill pick it up tommorow when i go to get my valve cover gasket.have to go to my pool banquet right now ill post some picks of the progress tomorrow:c:
