That sucks. I thought the clutch in your photo looked familiar... BTDT... :p:

*edit* but not that THAT familiar - the viscous clutch you have there is from a 3.0i, not a 3.0d. :rolleyes:

To be fair I'd never seen the 3.0 parts and I usually just see them in my rear view mirror..[emoji1787]

Replaced the O ring on the front diff where it fits into the oil pan. What a PITA! Took me 11 hours start to finish. Two of that was spent trying to get the diff back in place right after my two hydraulic jacks took a dump.

Also discovered my radiator has a leak. Will be replacing that this weekend.:banghead:
