the pilot bushing was in too far(from the factoy) the pilot bushing was worn bad . this was the sneeky part if you looked/felt it youd think cool its still good.NOT.the thingy that holds the fork on the ball lost tension causing it to slip and not let the clutch work right . the ball and fork were also worn (sneeky here too). he took the time to show me the whys/effects of each thing . I watched shared stories during the whole process. Rminded me of my old hotrod days/ gettogethers to work on cars. He also spotted and fixed other potental probs .trans yoke worn bad and replaced the u-joints. plus he is almost anal about setting the c beam. my car is dead nuts smooth to 150 anyway. like driving on glass. I tried it on the way home (paniment valley). did it 3 times its soo smooth.
