New clutch and pressure plate came today. 
Shitty part was GM doesnt have a clutch alignment tool that comes with the set, any auto store you get a clutch from, gets you a clutch, pressure plate, and tool to align it.... So after work i went to 3 different auto stores, none of them could help me unless i bought a clutch. Lol so i had to find a 23 spline for GM vehicles on ebay, paid 7$ plus 5 extra for faster shipping because im trying to work on the car this weekend.

Good looking clutch. If you are junking your other F40 you could use the input shaft from it. They make great alignment tools.

No, i ordered a tool. 12$ 
The other f40 may be kept as a back up/rebuild so if anything happens again, i could have a transmission on hand to swap back in. But im not sure yet.

You could put all new synchro assemblies in it and bearings and have another good transmission.

Yeah just gotta find a place to do it.
Gm said they dont rebuild the f40, they just replace them with a new unit.

It's probably gonna have to be done by a specialty shop that only does transmissions. Or you could tackle it yourself. They are not overly hard

Well its official, no one around me can or knows anyone that can resurface a dual mass flywheel....
New from GM has a price tag of 587$ + tax.
Ill find out this weekend if i need a good resurface, if i do, ill have to just buy a new flywheel unfortunately.... Fingers crossed its not bad.

Can you just install a regular flywheel? All a dual mass does it soak up torsional vibrations so your shifts feel smoother

Today after work i pulled the old transmission off along with clutch and everything.
Flywheel is pretty bad.

Flywheel is shot. You do not need to use a dual mass. It's a popular swap in F-350 to dispose of the dual mass and put in a solid one. All a dual mass does is fall apart and soak up some shifting action. I would look up a solid flywheel

Im reading up on it now, some transmissions require a DMF, and coverting to a solid (single mass) flywheel, could result in added engine/trans damage because of the added vibration, since a DMF dampens vibration a bit more...

Just a heads up gmpartsdirect takes forever to ship, at least from my prior experience. |
