Thanks Elliott, I guess thats the same as the t400? now how bout the small one? Dennis

[Elliott]

Maybe someone else here has a small bearing or small bearing case they can get a meaurement off of, I only have the large case. Are you just trying to figure how much to have the case bored up to fit a large bearing?

No, I think I can get a bearing that will let you put a big bearing input shaft (like a T-400 or ford) into a small bearing case thereby eliminating the machine work. Dennis

you got all the good info elliot.


ive got everything for my drivetrain but the T176 bellhousing have a hard time on that one. i want to get this setup in my rig.

[Elliott]

I'd look around or post here in the wanted section for a 176 bell, I got ming for ~$45 but if you are in a hurry you can buy one new from www.4wd.com for ~$200.

yeah im def not in a 200 dollar hurry, i can wait.

once i get the bellhousing, what clutch do i get? i was reading some stuff from OC and i think scotty about using a clutch meant for a hydraulic slave cylinder with a clutch design for a straight linkage setup being different. mines gonna stay with the linkage so im not real sure what to get. i thought i seen it somewhere people using a clutch out of a mustang.

[Elliott]

If you use stock Jeep clutch components all you need is a Ford disc and an adapted input bushing for the crank available at Advance Adaptors. I can't advise you on hydraulic bits, but if you anticipate a lot of frame flex you might want to go that route. I've done just about as much shifting without using a clutch pedal as I have with one so in the rare case my linkage might bind up I'm not going to worry about it personally... but that's just my feeling about it and it might change if my butt was hanging off a cliff

ok a ford disc from anything v8 or one from say whatever came in front of the np435. i seen the bushin on novak and advance ill be ordering that next

[Cecil14]

I believe a disk from an early 80s 5.0L mustang with T-5 should have the disk you want. You're looking for an 11" (10.5" if you can't find an 11") disk with a 10 spline 1 1/8 (I think) input.


aa

[orangecherokee]

a chevy disc will work too and is larger than a Ford. I think the Chevy is 11" compared to the 10.5". i could be wrong but I think I'm right.

as for the hydro i could go into detail about it but it takes forever and i'm slightly annoyed with it even though it works. not beause of the set up but because of all the crap I had to go through.

[Brad W.]

chevy half ton is an 11" disc, yes.

[JeepsAndGuns]

Is the Jeep T18 input not 1 1/8 10 spline? I swear I remember it being that??

[4x4fEvEr]

called advance and it looks like everything including the throwout bearing , bushing, disk, new pressure plate is gonna run me around 330 bucks but thats centerforce stuff. im hoping i can crossreference centerforce numbers and come up with somebody elses disk. who should i go with?

#384180 on the disk
#cf361675 for the AMC pressure plate
