The slave or master cyl lost enoung fluid that can't recover. Or the MC is leaing back for part of travel. Understand SB has a kit with a little more power. Do not recomend trying individual parts. Hard to bleed, ect. Generally if MC is bad the Slave is not far behind and will fail in 37 days or so. JMHO

ive got upgraded hydralics from sb that r about a yr old

 

[Guest]

[Guest]

ive got upgraded hydralics from sb that r about a yr old

you could try and adjust the rod on the hydralics at that will be a good chance it will fix it

 

[smokn01]

clutch is almost a yr old but lightly used

 

[smokn01]

the rod that conects to the pedal itself you mean

 

[Guest]

altight i think i know what your problem is what pressure plate does the dual disk have is it a 3250 3600 or 3850

 

[Guest]

the rod that conects to the pedal itself you mean

yes the sbc upgraded hydros have a adjustible rod on them

 

[smokn01]

its a 3600 plate

 

[Guest]

there are fingers/lever on the pressure plate that can break there is a good chance one of these are broke and this is where your problem is coming from my truck has a broken one and is having similar problems as yours and i am putting a new one in tomarrow the new plate was under warranty and this new one has four fingers instead of three.
i highly suuggest you call peter at sbc as soon as you can about this problem and he will get you fixed up

 

[smokn01]

so will it hurt to drive it then

 

[smokn01]

the only thing with that is that i just put it back in last nite an then it started acting up when i drove but wasnt broke when i put in

 

[Guest]

not sure what it could be but something is not working correctly i still drive mine have for a few months before someone told me thats what is was and i drove is to ts outlaw which is 1300miles round trip it just sucks shoving it into gear but sometimes it will work good for a couple shifts then acts up again

 

[smokn01]

yea thats what it sounds like to me its just annoying

 

[smokn01]

[smokn01]
