I'm sorry I have to tell you this, but you're probably going to have to pull your motor again based on those pictures.

The clutch fork must be installed prior to putting the motor in, and must be installed with the throw out bearing on the transmission snout. When the engine and transmission are mated, the throw out bearing snaps into the pressure plate and all is well.

I hope the pictures aren't telling the whole store and things are installed properly, but I thought I'd give you a heads up.

The clutch fork is connected, I even got in the car after everthing was done and pumped the clutch a few times and it felt good, Except for putting the throw out bearing on the for we snapped it into the pressure plate and lined everything up as it went in, tightened everything up, and tested it all is well.

Good to hear.

I made the mistake of trying to get the clutch fork onto the throw out bearing with the engine in. Which is I why I brought it up :)

Pictures dont tell half the story...


I just changed the fuel filter today, I see why are gauges are so far off now, half the fucking tank is in the lines!

Hooked up TB

Didnt get alternater or power steering done because i couldnt find the mounts, and i left the starter for now as i need the room for other things as of right now, but due to money restrictions this will take another month atleast to complete

lol, i'm thoroughly enjoying watching this...

Think i've killed the clutch in mine (or at least terrified of driving it because it'll break down on my 140km drive somewhere)... can't afford time or money to get it fixed right now... so i'm living vicariously.

carry on!

by the way, what's giving you grief on the other side?
