Post by SilveradoKC »

Would like to have one, or count me in if any list exists to buy one if someone makes them

It's just the case and the puller.

Ha ha nahh ..I'm just saying the hard to get parts are the case and puller. Grumpy made them on here but I think some didn't get bought so left a bad taste in mouth. I've seen them for sale after that but it's been awhile. There's a lot of guys on here that were satisfied with stronger springs different oil but mine still slipped and finally found one and cured all that.

He's called Grumpy for a reason. Let me speak to the Storm guys. I dropped my extended puller into a local machine shop to get a price, never heard from them and when I went back they'd lost it, but it just needs making longer by the same thickness as the spacer.

If I had one to copy I could probably make them now I have my CNC working??? Been thinking about it for a while. But saying that my other clutch conversion works great but needs more time testing. I've never seen a lockup but know how they work. I'll have to do some research. I have the spacer plate drawn up already.

A bit of research and a few days working things out and I have come up with a lockup with no spacer needed well that's the theory. I will print one first and go from there.

Haven't had a lot of time on this lately I think its version 4 know but its getting there. I just keep trimming off bits to fit it all in the housing very tight.

The problem is not the problem, the problem is your attitude towards the problem.
