Re: Pressure plate

Still working on it.
I have taken the tranny and clutch out to be be sure I have not installed anything wrong, which I didn't (sometimes you wish you did, that would make it easier!). I tested the pressure plate on my basic press. It seems the fingers are moving within 0.3 to 0.5 inches. I am thinking the Hydraumax bearing is not travelling far enough (it seems it suppose to travel 0.4") to press the fingers.
I ordered a ram hydraulice bearing which has up to 0.8" travel time. We'll see!
I guess the short answer is "no"!
