I amazed at how many owners attempt repairs without a service manual and think they can get correct info on the internet.


Like that frame stretching thread for example, my service manual has a section detail proper procedures and all y'all who replied in that thread left out some important info.

Just sayin'... safety of the motoring public is at stake if you do things wrong.

Your info and theory Kurt, always seems logical and precise, if I do say so. Thanks for all you do.

thanks for posting that,i may be an old dog but i just learned something. i do have a question,do the clutch adjusters ever get frozen /stuck and can you remove that to free them with out removing clutch?

The adjuster doesn't normally freeze up, but the adjuster ring in the clutch does. If the ring is frozen and you put too much force on the adjuster, it will break the adjuster. When the adjuster won't easily turn the ring, the trick is to remove the adjuster and tickle the ring with an air hammer until it frees and then reinstall the adjuster and make your final adjustment.

thanks for the tip.

mr haney,

we are looking for a custom flash file for cat c7 c9 c13 and c 15 to turn off the ARD regen system so we can ditch the DPF filter. The trucks are used off road and because they idle lots these fricking things break down every couple of days. If you can help me out email me at spirittrapper@hotmail.com. I'll make it worth your while, dont worry.

those clutches are made in india.....and shipped to the us....which took away jobs...including mine
