cluch bell ?

[HeartBreak]

but he can still run it, its not saying you can't run it, he is just saying it will eventually break.

True, altho it will wear out in a matter of short time.

So...i guess the ofna hardened bell 15t it is !!! :yes:

Thanks alot guys !!! :bow:

I would not get that exact bell. Get the hardened bell instead, as it's a lot more durable. Otherwise, you'll be looking at a busted bell in a fairly short time.

The bell he linked to (#77105) is a hardened bell and it is designed for the steel spur:

This style of bell comes with the X-SS kit along with the steel spur.

Ohhh, I was looking at the vents. There is a member here on the forum... flmsavage, if I recall right, that had a few of those sheer off from the horsepower from an OS .30. The only fix was to run the non-vented hardened bell.

If I were to run a steel spur I'd run one of those HPI vented bells I linked to above. The plastic spur works fine for my race track Savage. If you set the mesh and the slipper properly you should not have any problems.

MAN !!!! dont know if i should get the steel spur anymore...Would save buying a hardened bell and that damn steel spur, dont know i'll think about it...anybody else has an opinion please !!

I run the plastic spur with no issues at all. It's sure cheaper than a clutch bell to replace. And a lot easier if you have the X center trans case.

No problem amigo. With that gear ratio, you'll have to lower your 1-2 shift point down to about 1 1/8 turn from flush (see the instructions that come with the kit), and adjust 3rd gear from there.
