was the cluster I sent even rebuildable? that thing looked like SHIT!! I can't wait to put in my "Shea sweet cluster" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Ian, He Does do it for others, and as with his calipers, they turn out GREAT!! I have shea brakes And shea pedals... his work is great, customer service is amazing and prices VERY reasonable... when I pulled my cluster, it looked terrible and didn't feel right when it was in the car... I KNEW how it was getting fixed... Eric had a PM the same day, and I got the new cluster 3-4 days later(too late in the weekend to mail it out sooner)

Oh just wait... there's something wrong with it. Wait for Rich or the Cap'n to weigh in here. My pragmatic ramblings are no match for their intellect. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Oh... forgot to mention; It’s impossible to rebuild an assembly in MO. Certain climatic conditions won't allow it (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol3.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif)

OUT_FRIGGIN_STANDING!

I've got a small blasting cabinet that I'm about to attempt something similar on. I've paid people to do it in the past, and I'll continue to support those that do this sort of thing, but it's ALWAYS nice to have the 'step-by-step' to do them on my own as well.

Again...outstanding work!

Those are well worth it. I think you can get one for around $70.00. They can't do everything but they sure can make the small stuff look nice. I job out my big orders now but it's nice to have a small cabinet around to clean things up.

PM me if you have any Q's, if you do them yourself. It's pretty straightforward.

I just had the broken clutch shaft replaced about 2 weeks ago.

I noticed a couple days ago, it seemed that I had to push the clutch down further to get it to shift.

When I took it in to the mechanic today, to have a couple other issues worked on, and when he brought it back to the shop and had pushed the clutch in, her said he heard something snap. Yikes! Well, it looks like the used clutch shaft took a dump again.

Since the conversion, nothing had been changed for the last 4 years with the clutch, and so I don't know why two of them have broke, except maybe they are aged and fatigued?

I was wondering if a person could make a clutch shaft out of stainless steel shaft, but not sure how the end is mounted on, where the cable attaches? I wouldn't think the end where the clutch leg goes would be too hard to make, just the other end of it maybe?

Or do they make a upgraded/new pedal assembly?

Very odd and rare. I thought Pelican had new shafts for little money?

I was told that it could be something along these lines making it break? Otherwise it was shifting ok, and wouldn't think it would be anything internal. Maybe it has been adjusted enough that the clutch arm is slamming into something, making it push harder, and thus snapping it? This is with the Subie engine in it.



Something is limiting the travel of the clutch linkage, cable or the clutch arm might be contacting the transaxle case when the clutch is depressed. The clutch pedal should be fairly easy to depress.
It's not the shaft. you need something repaired in the clutch.

just want to thank Eric Shea for his efforts in writing and supplying the images.

my only problem was in removing the clutch pedal from the shaft.

I put the assembly into a ultra sonic cleaner with Evapo rust as the fluid,

ran it for about an hour and then let it sit over night. it finally came off.

thanks again for the instructions.

after disassembly, I cleaned, then wire wheel, then evapo rust, then wire wheel,

then picklex rust converter, then paint.

randal

before and after.
