    Which Clutch Should I Get?

    ^^^^^^^ this is why i spent the extra. The uncertainty with the 6 puc ACT, and all the love it hate it/ lifespan. Southbend specializes in big power high tq diesel applications. If they can build a daily driver 1500 ft.lbs capacity clutch I'd think they could build one for our little mazda

    My Solo southbend clutch install

    200 miles in and no more vibrations. not like it was anyway. You can hear a little gear noise but thats probably due to the lack of good iol to choose from. Ill order the fomoco stuff when i find a dealer that will send it for less than $30 a bottle.

    Yep, getting rid of the worn out dual mass flywheel ridded me of the insane vibrations.

    Would you rather? Opinions Wanted.

    It would help if we knew what were looking other than size. if that's all that matted just buy them. 17's usually have cheaper tires

    Weren't you the one who figured out it was the clutch vs the carrier bearing. sad to say, now im not nearly as worried since i cant make it shake. Ill have to replace the drivers side hub but that's a different story.

    At least i no longer have the death shakes, the dual mass flywheel must have some sort of lifespan.

    My Solo southbend clutch install

    Well, like it says over the weekend I installed my Southbend St.3 endurance clutch. I will never recommend for anyone to try and do this by yourself. There's already some good how to's so ill spare that. definitely was ready to be done. The flywheel was rattling from what appeared to be excess...

    Strange enough, pulled the tram mount. All good. I'll change the a.c. Clutch bearing next, and then the old ass clutch. On a side note, I think I may have an issue with the half shaft bearing. I can grab the passenger side axle where it goes into the carrier bearing and it has a crap load of...

    @Redline this was what i learned as well. I think the real problem with speaker with is the poor insulation and typically the crap connectors. The balancing act is to find wire to carry the load with the least resistance.

    If i was running a relocated battery i would use welding lead. car stereo wire rarely ever pulls high amps only for short moment bursts.

    Wow realized i never added pics of the wire. Super fine stereo wire is for sound and high current, have you ever seen the inside of a welding lead. Most car stereo shops sell cheap crap. There is nothing wrong with fine wire cables as long as your connections are built correctly. cheap gold...
