[QUOTE="Termn804, post: 16694248, member: 200899"] Hello everyone, I am trying to get some advice for a clutch install that I am about to tackle. I have seen multiple threads on these topics, but it appears I cant find the same information twice. Long story short, I am installing a RXT 1000 with a 26 spline input shaft. I am looking for a quality input shaft that doesn't require shimming.[COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)] It appears the D&D input shaft is the best bang for the buck and doesn't require shimming? Can anyone confirm this? Should I spend the extra money on a Tremec? [/COLOR]It seems liberty gear suggests .000-.004 in and out play and many input shafts require shimming. Also, I purchased the Mcleod adjustable pivot ball. I have read everywhere from 5mm-8mm shorter than stock height. I am doing this job on the garage floor with some jack stands so I would have to raise and lower the transmission multiple times. [COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]Could anyone offer any good measurements for the pivot ball?[/COLOR] I seen a lot of people complain about the high pedal on RXT installs, but it appears they aren't using the correct measurement on the pivot ball or using factory non-adjustable. [COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]Should I get an adjustable quadrant and firewall adjuster?[/COLOR] Lastly, while the transmission is out I will be doing the head cooling mod by cobra engineering. [COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]Is there anything else recommended to do while I am in there?[/COLOR] I thought about replacing the rear main seal. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am also open to any tips or tricks. While trans is out I plan on doing the anti venom mod as well. Parts being used: MCleod RXT w/ Aluminum Flywheel (26 Spline) Mcleod Throw Out Bearing Retainer Mcleod Adj Pivot Ball Ford Performance Throw Out Bearing Ford Performance High Load Pilot Bearing Ford Performance Clutch Fork Ford Performance Clutch Cable D&D (or) Tremec Input Shaft [/QUOTE]
