On a bit of bad news myself, not really bad news, but it's really annoying. My clutch pedal squeaks every time I push it down, and every time it comes back up. Any ideas on what it could be?
Where the ball on the end of the master meets the clutch pedal assembly there is a plastic bushing. Try greasing or replacing that. If that doesn't work, it could be the sign of a worn master cylinder.

BILLY IS ALIVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL, where u been man? how's ur truck going?


P.S. side note... again rdy to kill the shop. Now i just found out today that the braded hose they sent that goes on the clutch slave to the master clutch slave is A. too short and B. has the wrong end to go on the master slave end... So i had to call up AP and ship a fitting that will make the fitting on the master slave end go on, and then i have to go to a local shop and have them make me a custom fitted hose for it...

All this BS should of been discovered DAYS ago, not a week from it being in there...

I have ben ruining my *** off, training, work, vacation,.... I haven't had time to sit still, or work on the truck. The last thing I got to do to her was an underdrive pulley and an overdrive on the alt. It made a difference for takeoff. Haven't gotten to the track to see if there is any gains, but I can feel it in the seat of my pants.

You got a pm.

I installed 24" speed pleeder with check ball valve bled the damn thing for 45 min Ik the thing is bled right.. used some aqua hose to feed fluid back up into master cylinder.. but with engine running and clutch pushed all the way to the floor it wont go into gear. with engine off it will go into gear fine but when i push clutch in truck wont move. ik its not binding anywhere, when in neutral truck will roll fine forward or backwards.. im at my witts end. I've had the tranny out 3 damn times now.. first to replace flywheel, then slave cylinder, now new cluch, and still wont freakin work. Tranny is out of 02 T.A. and my motor is Ls6 out of 02 Zo6 Vette. Im using lightweight buillet aluminum flywheel, Ls1 Slave cylinder, and Spec stage 3 Ls1 clutch and pressure plate
