well i put the Ram hd in tonight w/stock resurfaced flywheel and used the shim. , and now the shifter feels notchy. when the car was up in the air, i held the clutch pedal down and shifted into first, the shift felt notchy, and the wheels were slowly turning as if the clutch wasnt fully disengaged or something. this made me very angry because the shift felt really smooth before the spec died on me. It wasnt too bad going down the road, a little notchiness was present, and it was a bit hard to shift into gear sometimes from a stop, whether i was going in 1st or reverse. i bled the everyliving piss out of it, checking to make sure i had enough fluid in the resivoir so it didnt run dry. do yall think that i shouldntve used the shim?? or is is my stock master possibly going? my slave is a mcleod, which was replaced in spring of 06'

the feel of the shifter between gears should not be related to the clutch unless it is not disengaging all the way. try bleeding it out again and see how it does.

okie doke, i will bleed it again when i get home from work tomorrow. do you think its the shim thats behind the slave cylinder, not allowing it to fully disengage? ive never had that problem before though... i hate having to think!
