Clutch area RATTLING PROBLEM
1 Attachment(s)
These new vehicles are a ball of fun. Now I have some rattling noise from between my legs in the clutch area when in neutral. I took off the clutch cover and noticed two things:
First the pin holes in the Clutch Operating Yoke and the Clutch Release Lever are warn and too large. I think I can drill them out and put in a larger pin. Second the clutch teaser spring is broken. It seems like the broken teaser spring led to the rattling that caused the enlarging of the holes on the clutch lever. This does not look like an easy fix. Is this one of those “bite the bullet and take out the drive shaft” events? Any ideas on how long that will take? Two hours, 10 hours? Thanks for all of your help. |
You'll have to take the drive shaft out to fix it. Being it will be your frist time doing it I would plan on 4hrs to get everything done. Once you've done it a couple of time you can do it in less time.

You may as well rebuild the whole clutch while you are in there...that friction disc has yellow paint on it and appears to be one of the single layer ones, so it's likely original. The driveshaft is probably worn under the throwout bearing, too. I know it's more than you wanted to do, but do it once and do it right and you won't have to touch it for 20+ years.
I would weld up the holes in the clutch hanger and drill them back out to the correct size, as there isn't a lot of material to work with. |
Thanks guys. I will wait until the weather warms up and do the drive line up right, welds and shaft inspection. Then I am sure I will have questions!
