    If you can find a similar donor car then most of your battle is won. Brewers is an excellent source for parts and info just don't wear the poor guy out too much without knowing a little bit about the process and parts from doing research. You're gonna have have to cut your floor and weld in a...

    A833 lubrication

    Old thread but I used synthetic and it leaked out of every possible crevice, seal and gasket it could . After resealing the trans with new gaskets and I rings I've refilled with Lucas SAE 80w90 and have zero leaks and smoother shifting than I had before including downshifting. My A833 took...

    Passon performance 5 speed

    That's good to know grim reaper. Thanks for the info. I take it he is using all suppliers from the U.S? Just baffling in today's day and age there aren't companies chomping at the bit for his business. Love to know what the deal is with suppliers.

    Passon performance 5 speed

    Same here. Good guy?....yes but I will never pay for such an expensive item unless it is readily available and shipped promptly. Too much can happen to a business in such a long wait time. Be nice if he had some investors that could help him get these things stacked to the roof and ready for...

    why does the over center spring have to be removed

    I can attest to how the over the center spring will eat up your clutch with a McLeod diaphragm style pressure plate. I finally removed my over the center spring about 1000 miles ago. I have 5800 miles on the car since it's restoration including the clutch and I just had to put a new clutch disk...

    Passon Performance 5-speed

    Looks like a whole lotta fat geared Mopars will finally be humming lower RPM's at cruising speed. I for one will be saving my nickels, dimes and quarters so I don't have to run 3000 rpm at highway speed. Dumb question as I have not read the MM article yet but what weight trans dope is...

    Clutch pedal to z bar rod

    You may have a bastardized z bar as well. I'd get all the numbers off of it as possible and give brewers performance a call. They have been really helpful any time I had a part compatability concern.

    Inland vs Hurst shifter...what makes Hurst better?

    The inland feels a little more sloppy but works fine. The hurst feels much more solid mechanically and snaps into place much more solid and you don't feel the extra give when you jamb it into gear with the Hurst as opposed to the inland. I actually enjoyed my inland and never had a problem with...

Make sure your clutch disk/flywheel is not contaminated...

    What clutch fork with Lakewood scatter shield?

    I really like these clips also which is what I was looking for at the auto parts joint, but they did not have them. Ultimately I would like to try these as well and see how they do. I messed with plenty of these with Mercedes shift linkage rods and they are really, really bad *** clips that...

    What clutch fork with Lakewood scatter shield?

    Everyone calls them something different. These usualy sit in a groove so it can snap in and relax, but the right diameter clip will snap right on with a tight, spring loaded hold and won't budge.

    What clutch fork with Lakewood scatter shield?

    Well my buddy is still thinking about how much he wants for the lakewood so I just went ahead and installed my correct Z-bar, clutch fork, pivot and hardware I got from another member. I had to loosen the clutch fork pivot bracket bolts enough to slide the fork into the pivot, then snuck a...

    What clutch fork with Lakewood scatter shield?

    mshred, you definitely made my decision easier by sticking with the lakewood. I wish some of these dudes that advertize all over the place in the mopar rags were not total morons when it came to customer service. I could share another story from a transmission vendor (not brewers) that has...

    What clutch fork with Lakewood scatter shield?

    Yeah, they do look pretty nice. I wonder if they require offset dowels or just plug and play?

    What clutch fork with Lakewood scatter shield?

    They are, but worth the price considering the alternative to NOT having one should the flywheel decide to take a vacation.

    My buddy has a Lakewood unit for me, but I need to get the block plate and whatever else do dads to make it work right. Is there a special Z-bar bracket for the lakewood housing? Where do you get the offset dowels?
