- Hello everyone, I've removed the pan and rear main bearing to adjust the crankshaft end float as it was excessive. I've got a selection of replacement washers and found 2 that put the float within sp

- Gary--If you have the engine already buttoned up, the .010 float is OK. But the more float you have, the sooner it will grow. I can't explain why you picked up the .003. Adding the assy. lube should

- Thanks Dick, now here's the rest of the story. My engine was completely overhauled 2700 miles ago. The thrust washers were put incorrectly and when I set the end float, whilst on the engine stand, I

- Gary--First, on the old squeal-- yes. I would think that the combination of a worn thrust washer against an irregular crank face could produce a squeal when the clutch is being depressed. Or even mor

- See Below. The squeal only occurred when OFF the clutch. Washers were installed correctly from the start. What I can't remember is whether the thrust washer surface was smooth to begin with. Don't re

- You use standard thrust washers and any good machine shop should be able to perform the modification. I am sure there are quite a few people that have done this same modification since I know I was
