anyone try out the tob/slave from McLeod (stock style)

[lenny127]

was wondering what kind of rep these units had.... bought one for my mt82 end of last year .... used it on the trans for 3 months until the trans let go .... I re used it on the Magnum swap and it started leaking a week after install . Going with Ford part tomorrow .... should have done that to begin with .

I changed my stock clutch out for a McLeod Street extreme clutch with a lightened flywheel. I left the stock TOB in there as it only had 18k miles on it. Bad idea...the car shifted like crap and I had issues getting it in first and reverse. On a separate note, I broke my OPGs and had to rebuild, so while it was apart, I put in the McLeod TOB. It’s all back together now and the car shifts great.

Same here. Street Extreme setup for T56 Mag, McLeod TOB and they sent a different pilot bearing that I used. having issues with reverse, a whistling noise while cruising, and a strange noise upon initial crank that almost sounds starter related. Going Ford OEM TOB/Pilot bearing next week.
