    Agree. Damper springs floating around, things get weird. A guy that knows how to double clutch properly. The damper springs will be dirty and in stock location. Just my experience.

    Agree. Only seen that happen once. Had one ear broken off. Driver didn't mention any issues. Doing a PM for a customer and noticed this shiny fresh hole in the flywheel housing.

    That flywheel spit it right out

    Unrelated ish. One time I had to use a air hammer to push clutch disk back in aluminum flywheel housing. So I could remove clutch. Cut right through detroit aluminum flywheel housing. Wish I had took pics. But 2002,03 didn't have great phones or camera. Never seen anything like it. Never forget that one.
     
    Oxbow Thanks this.

    Wow! Ya think you've seen darn near anything possible, and always see something new. Gives us the opportunity to learn though.

    02-03? Phones? Hahaha, i was on my first phone, and just discovered the "Snake" game.

    I enjoyed that game wayyyy too much
