and I got done before the cold weather got here! :cold: I do need to adjust the shifter linkage and swap out the pulleys for the deep groove pulleys and it's easier to do with it up on the ramps and jackstands. But it should be hitting the road again Saturday.

Doh! I decided to put on the deep groove pulleys while the car was still up on the ramps/jackstands and now the belts are too long! So I need to grab a new PS belt and a new alternator belt tomorrow and I'll be up and running.

Got the deep groove pulleys on and got the correct size belts and took it for a test drive. Woohoo, it has a much softer pedal feel and no binding. I can't believe I put myself through that all summer/fall driving the car with that other clutch and worn fork/ball.
