smi2710 is on a distinguished road
Had the truck looked at my a friend who owns a trans shop. After test drive hes got his money on the pinion bearing so looks like im gonna do a clucth on this beast in the near future. Since its tough to shift through all gears and not just one he has ruled old worn syncros and the pinion bearing no allowing full disengagement . Also as he put it the you can not ride the clutch its just a on/off point. After getting some prices I really hope i do not have to replace the pressure plat 510.00 my cost 1000.00 fromt eh dealer.

anyway i was gonna tackle the job myself but its cold and hes gonna chargeme not much to pull it and do it rather then me do it out in the cold.

clutch is 310. plus 19.00 for the are and 2.00 for a another little part.

If you guys know a cheaper setup let me know ( these are all LUK parts)

Also who has done a clutch on these trucks looks straight forward to me and i've wrestled VR6 trannys out of there tetris hole many times this one actually looks easy peasy.
