I had a chatter in my cluch and TOB noise.
The Ford guys said I needed a new Clutch assm. And a NEW Updated TOB Sleeve assm.
When it was done (and after I got over the fact that the lot boy backed a golf cart into my Cobra!!!!) I asked to see it. It was TOAST. I have changed many clutches in my life and never have I seen a Fly wheel with so many HOT SPOTS....And the disk was Almost down to the rivets. (BTW...anyone know why the pressure plate is deeply cut and threaded twards the center??) the tech said thats how the cobra cluch was made, but could not tell me why!
Any way my question is how many miles Hve you brother (and sister) cobra owners got out of your clutches?:burnout:
Mine only had 8905 miles!
And yes, I do know how to drive and no, it was not abused!
They sure do not seem to be able to hold the torqe these cars make for long. What do you think?:shrug:
