I haven't been out and about recently because I'm working on getting my stang back up and running strong.
Here are the pics of the Clutch, Flywheel, Slave Cyl and Master Cyl swap... and clutch line upgrade

Happy new slave cyl

stock bent clutch line vs sexy new JPC flexible line which made reinstall much easier

Tranny with clean new slave which makes shifting at high rpm much easier

New McLeod RXT twin disk clutch and flywheel

I think the problem with the old clutch was that it was blue and my car is red so this one matches the car and it does run a lot nicer now.

With the help of Will, we were able to do this in my garage on just jackstands but he did have huge 6 ton stands which helped with getting the car up in the air high enough

Looks good! I am happy to hear you like it since I have been looking at that. Where did you pick yours up from?

I ended up getting mine from JDM Engineering. They offered the best price. from what I found. I was a little surprised they even carried JPC's clutch line. I could have gotten the OEM slave cheaper from RockAuto but I just went ahead and ordered everything from one place.

Hey I am not exactly sure why but I searched through JDM for the RXT clutch but only found Roush and Spec ones. I did find the slave. Is this something you had to call in for? Maybe its me but can anyone post up the link if they find it? it could be I just overlooked it many times over lol!

I called. I prefer talking on the phone and it usually even nets a discount when asked.
