clutch going bad?
I'm pretty sure my clutch is toast but I'm lookin for advice on how to verify it's bad or other factors for clutch chatter, abrupt shifts when clutch is let out, tc is popping out. Have a Luk clutch in it but I was running 3.55 gears and 37s before my build. All The SYMPTOM started after build. 4.88 gears, new drive shafts, motor mounts, bushings. Help

Re: clutch going bad?
Do the high gear test. Put the front of the bronco against a immovable object in high gear, let out the clutch peddle and it should stall if the clutch is good.

Re: clutch going bad?
I think the chatter wad caused by the spring Put it in 4th and it stalls.. I'm beginning to believe the throttle linkage is to messed up it not smooth and with the np435 it's all exaggerated.

Re: clutch going bad?
Do you have EFI? And what throttle linkage do you have?

Re: clutch going bad?
I remember going from an old carb'ed rig to EFI and the throttle was hard to control. It was either idling or full throttle, nothing in between. I fixed it a little different way, but Viper has a great way of doing it. However, TBI is another animal, so I'm not sure if it'd help ya.
