just blew my clutch and good.. barely made it home.. got some steep hills on the way, it was 1st gear low range to get up them... Thankfully i already have the new clutch to put in, but will be doing the nv5600 swap at the same time, and I think my transfer case chain is on the fritz as well

Guess what my project is over the next little while!

I don't know if you noticed, but you're missing some material near the wear areas of your clutch disc

Should I scrape all the fluff that's behind the flywheel and maybe JB weld it back on?

I was thinking maybe some duct tape and you're good to go ?

Thought I ought to update this.. 6 speed is in.. 2nd and 6th gear synchros are a little weak but it works well otherwise... I gotta get around to doing a writeup on CF about it... truck has no trouble starting off in 3rd now.. really gotta get those 3.55's!!!

Meanwhile I think my driveshaft length was a smidge long.. donor truck is the same wheelbase and I used that driveshaft.. Only difference between the two is I have the HD transfer case which is like 3/8th" longer.. I think I popped the C clip in the transfer case and it's not coming out of 4x4 now... Joy joy, I get to take that damned thing out again, and then shorten the driveshaft a little.

Also still got oil leaks from hell, can't figure where they're coming from... steering box is one of them I think but engine is leaking too somewhere by the back.. I think it's the pan gasket

It just never ends!
