Re: Spec Throwout Bearing
Well mine has approx 5k miles on it and not a peep! Also my step mom has one in her 95 with more miles on it than I have on mine and it has no noise either. Just throwing in some good experiences.

Well, that's the decision I'm trying to make. Whether to try to put a G-Force kit in or not. I also need to beef up the rear-end and I'm looking at some strange hardened OEM replacement 31-spline axles and a truck trac-loc for the time being. But I'm afraid that the weakest point is definately that T5 and it might not make it past the first dyno run. The rear end would. I don't know, it's just gonna be hard to do both right now money-wise.

And no. He wasn't saying that I blamed anyone. Sorry. He was saying that I mis-quoted him. Excuse me that I haven't seen the last "1500 threads about SPEC". Heck, I have more in my life than sitting here and reading every thread about every thing. My fault.

Keep in mind that when someone quotes you and makes a reply, don't automatically assume that their entire response is directed towards you. I can't speak for Joseph, but I took the "dead horse" smiley as applying to the whole thread, not just you.

You're right about the T-5 being the weakest link, but don't assume that it's going to crumple up the minute it sees 500+ ft-lbs of torque. As long as you don't power shift and don't do any clutch drops, you should be fine for a while.

Re: Spec Throwout Bearing
But, I never quote someone unless what I'm about to post is going to be directed to them and what was said. Why even quote me if your not directing it to me?? If that was the case, and he was wanting to direct his response to the whole thread, then why didn't he just make a post and not quote anyone?
You know what? I'm done. It's not worth it.
