It also won't want to come out of gear unless you let it coast just right.

Where is a good place to order a spec 2 kit and slave. I need it her (Vermont) by friday so I can this thing done this weekend.

Also, I want to replace the pilot bearing. Do I need the special pulley, or is it alrady installed in a clutch kit?

go to your local auto parts store would be my suggestion the way the weather is and mail bc of the holidays they will probably be able to get it faster for you

i personally believe SPEC clutches are over rated for a 4.0.....from what i have read in my research on the manual transmission swap, the 4.0's stock clutch is a pretty strong/good clutch; thus why I went with the stock clutch for my swap. There are other "upgrade" clutches that are better than the SPEC clutch that are cheaper.

what should I get then. The standard lux kit from clutch city. I called the local autoparts store and they just had some generic kit for $295, plus $40 for the slave.

i do have to say..the spec is overpriced. I went from a Luk w/ 15k on it to a new Spec2... ilove the spec....but at double the price of a luk, eh. Although my luk was purchased from the ford dealership.....that was about $400.

Where are you in VT? I may need to do this AGAIN soon on my wife's truck, and I'm sitting around doing nothing all day of you want any help. Drop me a PM.
