We replaced the clutch, flywheel, release fork and bench bled the new master and slave cylinders. For instruction bulletins and additional videos by our part number go to www.clutchtechsupport.com
I used this video along with 2 others from perfectionclutch to troubleshoot and replace the clutch slave cylinder on my 2000 jeep wrangler. I even used the 800 number on the screen of the video and they were a huge assistance. I want to personally thank perfectionclutch for your assistance. Thanks to you I was able to replace the w and bleed the line before I reinstalled the hydraulic system. I am now a subscriber!
Hopefully, you got my son to put some mud on those tires! Thanks for the informative video- I particularly enjoyed the clutch hydraulics bleeding procedure. Too often bleeding is overlooked entirely or given a cursory attempt. In the case of a clutch, it can definitely lead to premature wear- in a brake system, it can be downright dangerous!
***** Of course they're not. Jeep makes more money that way. It won't be a cheap repair, but it will be cheaper than taking it to the shop. It's a 4 cyl., 2WD.
Great video, Gary. Flywheel, clutch, throwout bearing, etc are extremely well done. Wish you'd shown more about dropping and re-installing the transmission, but otherwise excellent. You didn't have to remove the starter motor?
do you know of any videos or walkthroughs for replacing the rear main seal( 3:05 ) ? i figure thats my current problem, when i dropped the transmission the bell housing is covered in about 1/4 inch of oil grime
Hi Gary, been troubleshooting my newly replaced clutch on my 2.5L Jeep TJ and cannot get it to disengage even after replacing all of the hydraulics. It looks like your pilot bearing is a bit more recessed in your flywheel while I hammered mine in so it probably protrudes toward the housing maybe a millimeter. After taking out and reinstalling my clutch twice, I can only think that the pilot bearing not sunk enough could be the problem. Any ideas if that could be it?
Question: I have a 2000 dodge dakota 2.5L they replaced the clutch like 6 moths ago, so now when i steep on the clutch pedal it engages almost at the very top, at about 1 fifth or less, making it really uncomfortable taking off on a steep hill specially moving at slow speeds when you have to play whit the clutch. Can you adjust the clutch so it engages almost at the bottom when you press the pedal, at 4 fifths rather than 1 fifth? Thank you much.
Hey Gary, another great video. My '88 wrangler 256 is leaking fluid at the bell housing. I'm having to top off the master cylinder every 20 miles and pump the clutch to firm it up. Do you think the internal slave cylinder is the cause? If so, do you know of a quality replacement part and a shop in the ATL area that can perform the maintenance? I have 44K around-town miles on the original clutch, should I replace that too? Thanks for all your help. I looked on your amazon link for the internal slave cylinder part and didn't see it. Trent
My 91 yj 4.0 needs to be bled often. When I do, it engages nicely but a couple days later I have to do it again (clutch to floor ). How do I know if its the master or slave cylinder that is giving me problems? Thanks in advance!
