My son and his pal did not have a drivers license Yet . They decided to tackle the clutch in My 77 F-150 . I knew They could handle it , They wanted to do the work at the pals garage .When They got it going , They Came here , Saying something Just aint RIGHT at all ??? So i drove it . Ended upstarting it in gear because of clutch drag . Fully depressed engaged The clutch kinda , Mid ways there was some semblance . engaged it slipped quite a bit too ,..WTHeck,Do You have something backwards ? Guys lets take it apart ! right there in the paved driveway . As i pulled the pressure plate bolts loose a 1/4 nut fell into my face ! ..Where did that COMe FROM ? . It seems that the boys had set the new clutch plate on the work bench where there was a greasey nut that adhered to the clutch .. And Yep .. Bolted that rascal right up to the pressure plate.. That was the guickest We ever pulled a tranny and clutch and bolted it back in ,,. We were done in side of one hour and it ran great .
