[Amc-list] rearended



Got the rearend filled and the first drive in...
No more leak! Looks like the right stuff is indeed the right stuff.
Still haven't fingured the squealing release bearing or pilot bushing issue though.
Just can't get a good look at any of it the way it is.
Would a bronze oilite pilot bushing squeal if it was worn out or doing something strange?
I can't imagine it would but???
I think it is the release bearing, but it ticks me off since the first time together it developed this same noise and I bought a high dollar mcloud [SP?] bearing and now it is doing it again after not a whle lot of driving.
Arg, I realy hate the noise, but I'm not realy wanting to yank the trans out to fix it then pull again to replace the trans.
Plus if it is the pilot then I got to go deeper.
   Just not ready to do the entire deal, really wish it would just shut up for a while...
Anyone have any ideas as to what may be going on?
   IIRC, I am running a three finger pressure plate and 10.9" clutch from a mid seventies Jeep, the release bearing I thought I got for a 85 or so T5 CJ, but I just can't remember.
   The travel seems to be right.
I wonder if the the arm may be twisted or bent?
