Okay well my six bolt is on the way and should be installed and running the first week of the new year.

Does anyone have anything to say that would make everything go easier that i should know so i dont walk another crank

 

You wont walk anotehr crank... period

 

Thank god. This sucks. I had the car 3 days and is been out of comission for 2 months. The temp tags are up now and it was a 60 day temp.Im not towing it to the local inspection station ill just drive and if i should get pulled ill pleed my case lol. So why sis they decide to mess with the thrust bearing on the 2g

 

its more than just the bearings. It the 7-bolt oil squirters as well. They dont function correctly under low oil pressure, so at idle and with the clutch depressed it will create alot of wear on the bearing, thus you get bearing failure. And to answer the question of why: well they changed to the 7-bolt in 1993 which just so happens its right when the coordination of chrysler and mitsubishi (DSM) ended.

 

Hmmmmm...this sounds terribly familiar..
