just got back from a drive in my truck, let a friend drive,, and what happens when i tell him not to slip the clutch??????? holy f' done wont shift unless shut off is that the clutch cooked or hyraulics ? i checked it out and no visible problems???? it is a SB fe for a g56 and has about 2300km on the clutch?????????? PLEASE~ HELP

 

Are you saying the clutch stays engaged all the time? When you put it in gear does it move on its own with the pedal down?

There is a few things it could be. 1) the hydros went bad but you should be able to feel if the pedal is spongy or feels normal. 2) The disc welded itself to the flywheel. It takes a pretty good intentional slip/boosted launch to do this. I have welded 2 FE clutches. You can temporarily save them but ultimately you will need to replace the clutch if this happened.

Try and give a few more details on what it is doing so we can lead you down the right path.

 

Geez, what are friends for eh?
Hope you get it figured out...

 

ya so i am just about to drop the tranny.. i have a dd 3250 on the bus it should be here late this evening and i will pick it up and install tomorrow morning!!!!

 

make sure the adjuster on the hydraulic unit didnt strip or come apart. Seen it before.

 

My truck will move if I put pressure on any gear before it actually goes into gear with the clutch pedal in or out. It has done this since I installed the clutch???

Sorry didn't mean to steal your thread.

 

the hydraulic assembly seems to be fine. i pulled it out of the housing and had my friend push the clutch in and the rod on the assembly pushes out so it seems to be fine!! just pulling the transfer case right now,, then in a little bit we will see the damage to the week and a half old con fe
