Interesting, I never saw anywhere in the McLeod instructions that my flywheel wasn’t balanced from the factory. I guess this is why my RST and almost everyone else I’ve heard install a McLeod twin disc gets chatter at lower engine speeds. Mine sounds nasty right about 1900 rpm. I don’t understand why they would sell a flywheel that’s not balanced at the factory.
Yeah, it’s on the cover sheet of the instructions. Might just be a way to remove any blame cause I called around and no one will balance mine. It should be balanced against the crank is what they tell me, so I’ve thought about measures to spin the assembly before mounting the transmission behind it, but don’t want the clutch discs moving out of place without the input shaft holding it. Clutch chatter in each gear when shifting is normal on any new clutch. My mach 1 shook the steering wheel when it was new. I wonder if ford wears ir down from the factory since new cars aren’t like that
Great in-depth explanation as usual, Danny.
I think it's BS how McLeod strongly recommends balancing their product, yet just doesn't do it from factory. With shipping and what they'll charge you, it'll easily add a few hundred dollars to the cost of an already expensive clutch - and then the time and hassle you have to deal with shipping. McLeod is the only clutch I know that doesn't sell you a clutch ready to go. I wish I would have know this before I bought mine, I'll see how it treats me.
Are twin disc clutches and multi plate clutches the same?
I do believe that is another name for it
Outstanding work thanks
Hey Danny my proportioning valve for my brakes went out on my 2001 cobra do you know of any company that sells new ones
I have a McLeod 8 bolt steel flywheel that I got balanced when my motor was built for my 03 GT. The whole rotating assembly was balanced. I have since bought the RST organic 26 spline clutch to go with it after upgrading to a TR 3650 Lashbrook trans. I hope the clutch and flywheel will be ok together as they were not bought as a set like yours. What problems, if any, could I expect?
To run the clutch kit with another flywheel it should come with the adapter plate/ring, so make sure it has that.
I could not find anyone in town who would balance my flywheel, so after seeing it had been “zero balanced” from the manufacture before it was added to the kit makes me think it should be okay. Probably the same with yours. Just see if you get any vibrations when it’s all said and done.
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage Thanks. The only time I've seen a flywheel balanced is with the motor balancing from the lower damper to the flywheel.
I’d take photos with my cell phone during disassembly for additional reference.
I’ve not only taken pictures, but also videos of the measurements
Hey Danny good video yeah I got to pull my transmission this weekend on my 01 cobra before broke where it hooks onto the ball have you ever heard of such a thing and also LOL I wish you and your brother Justin lived closer to me I would love to have the help by you guys you are experts
Which ball?
I'm sorry Danny the clutch fork the side that hooks onto the ball and the other side hooks onto the clutch cable the side that hooks onto the ball broke
Awesome video.
Thanks! You’ll probably like the install as well

Will you be making a install video for the input shaft?
I plan to if it ever ships
Until then, I have the retainer sleeve video that pretty much shows it. You just need to check the end play with the new input shaft when the cover is installed. It has to be .002-.000 ua-cam.com/video/EsaOBOy67h4/v-deo.html
What with auto transmission clutches ?
There are some automatically operated manual transmissions
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage but is it any packet to replace 8l90 clutches ?
Great comparison. I got mine as an open box item off from American Muscle and saved a decent amount then sent it back to McLeod to be balanced. I’m sure a lot of people miss this step and never get it done and then complain about how it performs later on
Do you know if they balance only the flywheel or attach the entire kit to be balanced as a whole?
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage that I’m not sure, I just know the clutch and flywheel came attached after balancing it like in the video
Do you know if the 6932-07 will fit the 04 cobra t56 with 26 spline on a coyote 22 block ?
I would call McLeod to verify. Is your setup cable or hydraulic?
