Input shaft on the transmission?
Axle?
If the engine runs fine, it's definitely something from the flywheel on back.

Yea i'd check axles first too, it only needs to pop out a little bit to not work.Quoted post[/post]]

Hmm. I didn't check the axles, I'll do that if it's not raining tomorrow. How do I check the input shaft? What am I looking for?

Ok, so I've been hearing that it's fairly commong for clutch discs to break on built motors. I guesstimate my Z6 to be around the 125whp mark. That's more than stock but that shouldn't need a stage one style clutch, should it?

On the hub side or the tranny side?
I haven't been able to look at it yet, thanks to the weather and my friend's schedule...the car's at his house. I'm sure it'll be fairly obvious once I pull them out, but I just want to be armed with as much as possible before I go over there tomorrow since my friend doesn't believe in using computers or the internet.

What would cause it? Main thing is worn mounts. This has happened to me in 2 different cars. My Nissan Altima and my Integra (2 occasions). Replaced the mounts in the altima as well as the axle, it was fine. Replaced the axle in my Integra the first time, it was fine. Then after my auto-manual it happened again, replaced axle and installed mymount inserts and all was fine.Quoted post[/post]]
That'd be dope.
I remember someone posting about their axle popping out every few miles, about a year ago, but I can't find it. What might cause that, I mean other than the obvious not being seated all the way? What would cause an axle from seating properly? The fuckers were hard as hell to get in, way harder than it was changing an axle on my woman's DX hatchie. I actually had to use a BFH dead blow to get them in. I double checked the part numbers with AutoZone, too. Just curious so I can already be armed with the info before I get over there.
Yeah, definitely check that before pulling the trans. Regardless, there is a problem with the clutch system that repositioning axles will never take care of.Quoted post[/post]]
Well, maybe it's as simple as one of the stays for the clutch cable coming out of place and putting too much slack in it, or the sleeving around the clutch cable broke. You never know.

'Twas the driver's side axle. AutoZone gave me the wrong one, it sounded like it seated but it wouldn't physically fit all the way in. So I exchanged it but I forgot to check for length, it was exactly 1 5/8" too short. I made it to the end of the driveway before it popped out. So I said "fuck it" and just put the old one back in for right now. Seems to run fine now.
Thanks for all of your help, guys.
