transmission fixed




trouble with the clutch throwout bearing last week. Got everything taken apart, parts ordered, reassembled - and it works!
The outer thrust washer was completely gone, ground into metal dust. the bearing was in two mangled pieces and the pushrod was a mess.
It shifts better now then when I go it, which leads me to believe that it has been messed up for a loooong time.
While the pipes were off I figured I would paint the rust black, but orange was on sale...and I'm digging it.
