Shortly after installing the DP motor I started hearing a noise while the clutch was pushed in. Once released, I thought the noise went away. I had hubby listen to it and he thought he still heard it either way, so we chalked it up to just a noise in the motor. I kept driving it for a few more weeks when this last Friday while in a drive thru I noticed it acting different. It started to chatter when first taking off and also seemed like it wanted to jump into gear when going into second. So I asked hubby if we could put it on the lift at his work so I could check the clutch cable. I figure this being the 3rd cable, maybe it was starting to fray. Once up on the lift we noticed that the throw out bearing arm was coming out of the tranny.
Here is a look at it when we first pulled the motor.
This is it after hubby tapped it back to where it was supposed to be.
The cir clip had came out of its grove allowing the arm to float back and forth. Which caused my noise I was hearing.
After fixing that we finally got to put my new bumper on. Here is a before pic.
After. Got rid of the ugly rust spot and now has bumper guards.
