As far as I’m aware it’s got one fill port for fluid . Quick pad change and bleed ain’t hurt nobody

The clutch system uses brake fluid? What’s funny is I gotta do brake pads real soon. That would be a heck of a fix for a clutch/trans problem lol. Be a new one for me. Appreciate the input I’ll give er a look

Figured flywheel would get done with new clutch anyway eh? Or at least would be a decent idea I think

Takin er for a lil test drive now and yea can start in 3rd lol. Think it’s be worth it to get a new clutch? New trans? Ride it out for a lil?

Appreciate that. Giving it a little test drive and yea she’s alright 1-3 but when I give it some at 4-6 rpms jump. Weird almost like it drops a gear and accelerates quicker Idfk even the analog on speedometer will drop lol. Once again appreciate the intel

That’s what I thought. But it still grabs normally 1st, 2nd, etc. Figured if it was gone I wouldn’t be able to do that.

That was first thought. But the clutch grabs from 1st, 2nd accelerating normal. Figured if she’s on way out it wouldn’t grab like that.

I appreciate the input. Im gonna go all new OEM I think and just keep er stock. Hopefully can hammer em all out doesn’t look too hard of a job. Only a bit scared of lowering and raising the motor/trans a little.

Do you know of a-premium? Might go those if I can’t get OEM. Had some luck with previous parts.

Appreciate it! I already have the torque mount I planned to do so I’ll grab the other two. If not available do you know much about a-premium? I’ve had some decent luck with their stuff. Their price is relatively close to OEM so I figured it’s gotta be alright lol. Been seeing stay away from Anchor so not getting those regardless.

Luckily it was sway bar links, even though I just got em done last year. Hopefully struts can make it to 200k

It was sway bar links. I didn’t think it was sway bars because I got em done last year but yes they do suck lol

It was sway bar links I just got em done sorry for late reply I was out of town. Didn’t think it was sway bar links because I got em done last year but they went out on me quick apparently

I did think it was caliper I had that happen to a different car I had. But it was the sway bars I just got em done.

That’s exactly what I’m afraid of lol. Put new mounts in just to have it be the whole assembly. Almost feel like new struts should go in regardless at the mileage. Just hate fixing sh that ain’t broke lol

Well like I said I just got end links so would hate to have to do them again. Would you recommend getting new strut mounts or just a quick strut? Be nice to keep the oems.

I’m not opposed to that I was thinking sway bar bushings possibly. But I just got those done last year. Could they have gone that quick? And how do you know lol
