    (PIX) So the Mustang broke down today

    I was driving home from work and I turned onto hwy 5 to get to 694, and I went to shift into 3rd and all of a sudden there is very little clutch feel and the clutch wouldn't dissengage. so i pull over, shut it off, and put it in neutral and push it into holiday. after seeing the fork was still moving and that wasn't the problem, and my cell being dead, I put it into 1st gear and started it in 1st and drove it 2 miles back to work in first gear in the shoulder. I put it on the lift at work and see that the metal ring on the pressure plate pulled off and was spinning freely and lodged itself between the throwout bearing and pressure plate fingers. So now I get to pull my tranny out and put a new clutch in (its a junky clutch in there that was just supposed to last a little while, but i thought i'd be more than 3 days) But i'm not pissed or anything, because i've already put a tranny in once, and it gets easier the second time, right

    anyways, thats my story. the end

        It's always easier the second or third and sometimes 4th time around.

                          yup. i was actually suprised how well it worked before that for something thrown together in my garage by myself and myself only. But i'm most likely gonna swap clutches at work which means 4 post lift and hydralic tranny jack

                              the worst part is, ever since i got c clip eliminators, it feels like i have the hand brake on a notch or two... I can't even push start it anymore... by the time i get in the car the thing stops
