No, It's tucked right against the firewall, but honestly, this is a part that should be built to take abuse. Actuating the clutch, even in normal stop and go traffic puts an immense amount of stress on the hydraulic system, upwards of 350 to 500 psi. In reality, having a plastic pressure...

Honestly, I'm used to performance clutches on sports cars, and hd clutches on trucks. The Bronco clutch has always felt loose, mushy, and unpredictable. The accumulator (failure point) and dual mass flywheel (heat generator) combined create a comfort-biased system at the expense of ruggedness...

A resounding YES! I have ordered the parts to replace the plastic piece with a full metal piece. Once I get it put together and verify fitment and function, I will post it here with links so it can be replicated.

Here is a photo of the failed accumulator. There are 4 tabs that hold the body to the internal valve. All 4 tabs broke off allowing separation. Here are a few pics of the failed part. There are 4 tabs that hold the body to the internal valve. The tabs broke off allowing full separation. I...

I wondered... glad to know. I had an old 94 F150 and a 95 Geo Tracker back in the day that I occasionally had to drive like that because I couldn't afford to repair them! lol

Bleeder valve is part of the QD at the bottom of the hose as it goes into the transmission. System is not really made to be easily field blead, apparently ford has a special setup to get the bubbles out. Two retaining clips on the fitting, one to remove it completely, one to slide it out just...

I'm going to build a permanent fix, let me know what yall think... Two of these as the broken part is female on both sides...

And, here are some pics of "Harry" on the trails!

I spent just under 3 weeks in the San Juans with the family enjoying all the trails. The day before we were supposed to head home, we jump in the Squatch and the clutch goes to the floor...and stays! I only have 40k miles on the rig with mainly commute driving and some occasional offroading. I...

I have Falken Wildpeak A/T4W's on a 1997 Grand Cherokee, Firestone Destination X/T's on a 2017 Expedition EL (my wife's daily) and on a 1997 Cherokee Classic 4x4. I have nearly 50k miles on each set through various driving conditions all over the US. These are both excellent choices for a...

HPR sure is purdy!

I told them about the problems the next day. They said they would have to schedule me another service appointment, which would take another four weeks. I told them that that was not acceptable since one of the headlights was out and I would not be able to drive at night. They didn't care at...

Anybody can refuse service at any time for any reason. Choosing to refuse service because you made a mistake and are not willing to make it right is not okay with me. Like I said, opinions can change, people can make up for wrong doing, and I even said that in my review. Had they stepped up...

That's great! thanks for the info!
