ok so i think everything is ok i did my b swap and auto to manual swap a few months back.. everything is fine until i notice that the clutch feels a little wierd... i check under the hood and what do i see.... a mess evidently i had a small leak at one of my connections to slave cylinder and my fluid was almost empty.... i filled it and reblead everything and the car was running fine... fast forward 2 weeks to thursday morning (march 23) i start my car and hear this really wierd almost grinding noise... i get in push in the clutch and it stops... so i am like ok that is wierd.... i drive to drop of some clothes and go to work still getting that wierd sound.... ok so 10:00 thursday morning and i have to run back home (less than 7 miles) i get about half way home car will only go into 3rd gear.... then as i am pulling off of the road i hear a small boom and my front wheels lock up and the car will not go into any gears.....:hoppingmad:

unfortunately i had to fly to texas for the weekend so i haven't had time to tear it apart yet... but what do you think went the clutch?? or the tranny???


thanks,
steve

sounds like what I was going thru with my tranny I took it down and found the clutch disc to have one of the springs popped out and rubbing on the clutch disc that could have easiely locked up the tranny. I think it might be that or maybe a blown diff. GOOD Luck with it!
