Silver05 that strait up sucks man, I got lucky with my tranny. But I feel ur pain on nobody having the parts in stock. I can't drive mine yet bc I can't get to bleeder on the slave bc it's right up against the floor, I ordered a 24" speed bleeder hose to connect to it but found that I need a fitting to connect the two together, i'v been waiting for 2 weeks for this fitting so I can get it bled right and drive the damn thing!!! Hopefully it's here by this weekend..

Yea, im seriously ready to kill the people installing it!!!!! I dropped it off last friday, and then checked on it monday cause i had a couple more parts for them. I drove to chicago and back and just went in a little bit ago today. THEY HAVENT TOUCHED THE DAMN THING since i left on monday... On top of that, tomorrow my driveshaft should be in and it i hadn't been the douche who keeps calling each place a million times to see if their doing their end of things, i prob wouldnt of gotten it till next week. The shop kept saying they were waiting on the driveshaft ppl to call them back. Then u call the driveshaft ppl and their like, "well im waiting for ur shop to get me 1 more measurement." ... Meanwhile im siting there <----------- doing that and nothing is getting done... I'll probably be lucky if this thing is done by next week...

O yea, the transmission is still sitting on the floor of their shop. They still dont have the posi in and pretty much all they did is install the clutch and the throw out bearing...

If i could do this... ... i would

That is terrible! I had that same problem when I took mine to a shop to have the slave cylinder and clutch replaced!

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?
