So everyone I am converting to a t5 trans from a auto trans. So this is how it goes I buy a t5 from a 1994 mustang v6 so i buy all the stuff to convert it to fit my 1989 mustang. Get ready to laugh I put the trans in and fill it up then deside to leave it on jack stands, next i turn the car on and run it through the gears and it works, so drop the car and the peddle is hard as hell so i cant figure out why. I just did it states in the instrustions that not to run it off the ground cause of the rearend backlash will screw up the pressure plate guess what i did, so if you try this you will damage the pressure plate Thought i would let you guy know im a

ummm no it won't unless you are terribly reckless with doing such, If I had a quarter for eveytime I have run a car on a lift to diagnose a prob, I'd have no reason for working, total misinformation at its finest!!!, you have another issue, either operator error in installation or a mismatch of parts.

I always check it on the jackstands to make sure the clutch is engaging/disengaging properly and make sure the trans shifts smoothly. Total misinformation.

Yeah, even TREMEC states in their instructions to run the car through the gears on jack stands during initial transmission break in.

I bet your shifter is now sitting farther back than what it should as well.
