Bad Install
About 6 months ago i got my new clutch and adjuster installed and i thought because i got the spec 2+ it would be harder to press in so when i got it back it felt like a wall. I thought nothing of it and figured thats how they all are. my throw out bearing went and i didnt know why, i didnt think i was riding the clutch that much. i dropped off my car at a local mustang shop and i got the new T.O.B. put in and found out that my clutch and line were installed wrong. its fine now, but what should i do about the previous install? I paid 450 just for labor to get clutch and clutch adjuster put in... wrong, and now i paid 40 for the bearing and 250 for install to fix that. should i call and try and get something out of them?
good news is it is faster, clutch must have been slipping a little(line was routed wrong causing clutch to be partially engaged the whole time!). i got another 3 weeks in this damn cast but after that i hope to get into the lower 13's now.
I have bad luck with installs, last bad u-joint install by a great young ford tech sent the drive shaft into the trans causing this... and a nice black and blue mark on my hand. if any of the trans oil got under my tires i would have been over one of the guard rails on the NY thruway
(cracked the whole way around)
