Well before i installed the trans again after the swap...i noticed it had leaked some fluid...so pulled the dust cover and the complete from bearing section came off...and all the fluid came out...so i just re installed the ring you see in the picture and pushed it all back together...it held somewhat...but still took some persuasion once the trans started to line up...but yeah...it appears something binded up and made the plastic weak...cuz its just all jacked up!

heh... you should come hear/drive my 5-spd. It's def on borrowed time, and I'm trying hard to scrape together the funds for a proper T56 swap.

Got bored. Decided to pull the slave out of the trans. Took some effort but it finally pulled apart. The rubber piston seal folded over and jammed up the slave. Eventually i will get a new one and i can go terrorize the neighborhood!

Has your slave sobered up yet? Is he hung over? Why do you have a slave anyway, and what's he doing a tranny, not to mention the fact that his rubber is folded over and jammed up himself??? Gross

Wow Chris, you must have been really excited to say all that! I figured you where going to say something about a T-56 or an auto, but you didn't. Instead you made me stupider!
