Need Clutch Help/Info
#11
The adjustable quadrant and firewall do not help with the poor design of the TOB (I have both). Ford has still not fixed this problem of their TOB in the Mustangs. What happens is when the transimission is getting hot it melts away the grease that is inside the TOB so you end up getting the metal outer wall spinning on the metal ball bearings causing the sound that you here. My buddy has gone through 3 TOB on his 04 with 160,000 miles and I am about to replace mine tomorrow on my 02' with 67,000 miles. It is sadly a common thing for the TOB to go before any other clutch components.
