    My shop has installed the short slave cylinder, part #DR3Z7A508A. The clutch is having issues with disengagement at very low RPM. Other owners are telling me I need to install the long (I dont know the exact part number) slave cylinder to prevent this binding issue. Is there any merit to this? I...

    I have recently replaced my oem clutch with a mcleod RXT. A local speed shop did the clutch, flywheel, pilot bearing, slave cylinder and throwout bearing as well.

    Over the last month, when I go into reverse, and I start to move backwards, I start to hear a loud screeching noise. Not really a clunk or anything. It’s really loud and sounds like metal on metal or something that would cause a loud screech. I’ll push the clutch in, put it into reverse, and...

    I own a 2013 GT Premium and I love the clutch. I would love to own a Shelby but that car’s sports clutch gives my leg a workout. Is there a GT-like clutch (or any clutch) that can make owning a Shelby easier on my left leg? Thanks.
