well after a few horrible days of clutch swapping on the gravelly ground, by myself, i got my trans bolted back to the engine (on my 89 sohc) put in an exedy clutch. i put on the new throw out bearing just how the old one was. so i go to bolt the hydrolic clutch thingamajigger onto the trans and the arm thing that moves the throwout bearing hardly moves at all. i bolt the hydrolic thing on anyway. i feel the pedal and theres like nothing there. goes to the floor easy with no effort.

what the hell went wrong????

goddamn thing took me HOURS to get back onto the engine... jacked up the front of the engine with a jack from my truck and performed a blancing act with my pep boys jack and some wood with the transmission... then i had to basically bench press it and with some more jacking i got it to go into the engine. now the fukkin throwout thing is like stuck. i greased it the hell up and evertyhing. idk but im just so pissed... and beat. my back looks like im in slavery with like whippings. from workin on this ground with rocks and **** i got all tore up.

someone help lol__________________

i put it on just how i thought i took it off.... i put the fork behind it and clipped it in on both sides. when i put it in, i made sure it slid back and forth. and sometimes it would get stuck...

idk what the hell to say

bleed it from the slave. think it's the slave. the nipple that's right next to the transmission. i'm not very good with terms sorry. but bleeding should fix it.
