Has anyone ever had the pad material separate from the shoe? Like as if it were glued to the metal and peeling back.1st time I have ever had this issue with a clutch that has only had 6 tanks through it.
 
I wonder if heat would cause this issue because when I finished my bash-on the gears were so hot they was smoking like a chimney lol.
 
heat gets everything, i have run down to the metal with sparks pouring out of the clutch.

never seen a pad dropped

Damn, that is hot. I bet the clutch over heated, and the heat transferred through the gears. With that kind of heat, the bearings will need some attention. :eek:
 
This all started with the gears locked up so I pulled the plate and the remembered that I manuly locked the breaks when I set the xb on top of the car for some cool off before leaving. I found the bearing on the b/c lay shaft was on the verge of dropping its ball and the shaft has a groove from a seized bearing and then I noticed the clutch. I'm glad I fought it when I did before total failure took hold...
