Thread: Need Help!

now what? can i weld that back together or what?

I believe Miko has said that on B14's it's pretty common deal, and the tranny bracket should help it a bit.

You can go to Nissan and pick a new one up, but I think to fully replace it you might have to drop the transmission.

That isn't the first time I have seen that (probably not the last either). You'll have to take the tranny off and replace that clutch arm. It isn't that hard to do.

and i just had the trans out of the car ;/ what would make the bracket cause this?

it really is a variety of things that can cause this to happen like; Too heavy of a Clutch setup, Wear and tear (think about how often this thing moves in one day, alsob heat fromt he engine weakens the metal, plus some other things I think
It is a very comoon problem just weld it up so u dont have to drop the tranny.

LOL! Look at the thread I just posted in (the thread I started in this section). Just weld it up.

its not necessarily too heavy of a clutch that causes it, ive seen this happen a couple times, hell ive never seen a clutch fork break until i broke one myself and cracked the sleeve of my throw out bearing. It all came down to because the tob and sleeve were not properly greased. Make sure you put plenty of grease on the sleeve and tob, cuz all it take is a small bind and its done for.

I personally have never snapped the lever before but i can guarantee its not the clutches fault, im sure it plays a part but with a properly greased tob and sleeve i can bet it wouldnt have happened. You will be surprised at how good the clutch will feel after you grease it too. Again i have an ACT extreeme pp with 6 puck disk (one of the hardest clutches out there) and have had no problems when its greased properly, hell i have yet to snap a clutch cable yet with this setup as well. Been 1 1/2 years too.

I thought i snapped the cable when the clutch fork broke, nope cable was in perfect shape still and its the original one

so i welded it and it seems to be holding on. the lever seems to too high from the tranny and it wont go down too much its a little bit lower then how it is on the picture

Damn I didn't know that. I just ordered a new one and had to drop the tranny.

had a weak weld done and it cracked again
