Over the weekend I pulled the ZF5 out of my truck, and installed a ZF6.
I was very misinformed by a clutch manufacturer who said that if both were from a 7.3L then I could re use my flywheel.
Luckily for me, the guy I got my adapter plate from also gave me a dual disk clutch. So out came the tranny, in went the dual disk, and everything went back together
This time, the starter touches the ring gear, and the truck starts. Major bonus over the first try. Now The clutch is Very stiff and releases right off the floor.. It is near impossible to shift. And when you do press the clutch, it rattles like crazy!
The clutch came with a modified release bearing.
Is this dual disc just dead maybe? It didn't look amazing.
I will try and post some pics
I'm using a destroked engine plate and crank spacer...
Thanks!
