I just recently put in a new stage 2 Ram Clutch in my 99 Cobra I also drained the trans fluid and put new Mobil 1 synthetic trans fluid in it and ever since that my trans hasn’t been able to go in to gears at high RPMs easily so I drained that out and put in regular trans fluid in it helped a little but still wont go in gear right away it almost like a hesitation but no grinding but when I’m just driving her normal and easy it will go in and out of the gears just easy as can be

This never happened before the clutch install ,trans is a T-45

If you have any ideas of what this could be please give me some feed back

Maybe the clutch cable needs adjusting? Still on the stock cable?

You need to upgrade to an aftermarket quadrant. The stock one wasn't designed to handle a heavier clutch.

I'm currently running the Maximum Motorsports set up. I've also used UPR and Steeda with no real issues. As for the TOB, a lot of people go with a stock replacement. I manged to find a Timken replacement at a local store and haven't had any issues yet.

I know I went with the UPR quadrant and FWA and it made a huge difference I was getting alot of cable slack.
