We might sit on blocks for up to 10 years.... but we never die!Hang in there! You’re a DSM’er! DSM’ers never say die
Truth. My wife about had an aneurysm when she saw me outside working on the DSM, .
Still feel like crap, and body aches are next level, but eh...could be worse. Gonna plod along on this thing probably doing one thing at a time and going inside todierest a few hours, then rinse and repeat.
From here just gotta install the new slave/bleed it, throw the axles back in, toss the exhaust back on it, IC pipes back on, electrical connections all clicked in, and fill tcase/trans/rear diff with new fluid. If I wasn'tdyingfeeling like I just fought off six MMA-trained bears, I could be done in an afternoon. But alas, here we are.
My birthdays in a day though...so that's nice.
What’s the story on your clutch/flywheel? If the fork is that far past center it usually indicates a worn clutch disk/flywheel, that’s in the shimmed pivot ball territory
Shim it. I measured 3x ACT flywheels here currently and they are all 0.607-0.608" in step height brand new.
So...beach day tomorrow, meaning I have one less day to work on the Talon. Know what that means?
This.
It's the other way around. The further the PP friction surface is inwards to the flywheel due to the step height being too great or the clutch disc being too worn/thin, the further the TOB moves away from the pressure plate due to the fingers moving the opposite direction. That causes the push rod end of the fork to angle more towards the slave cylinder.What’s the story on your clutch/flywheel?

However you are prying it, it is not the force on it, it is literally a flick of the wrist to pop the axle out with a prybar.
On awd drivers side has no c-clip.That’s the experience I had several times before. I’m honestly not sure what I could be doing wrong. I even used a small screwdriver to get a better position and it’s just…locked. It moves slightly back like it’s gonna come out and then just clicks in place and stops.
The other side came out with no effort. None.
Put a square shank screwdriver/prybar behind it. Twist the shank with a crescent wrench
When I have to pull mine, there's always one side that just doesn't want to give. Over and over and over.. and then suddenly, be it angle or sudden force, it just comes out with practically no effort and I'm left wondering was the big effort..
Never an answer it gives me.
Paul's explanation definitely explains my last time (first with an AWD). I was referring only to fwd earlier
