Ok thanks.   I've seen that thread and a lot of the others.  None seem to cover my problem exactly.

I have had the cover open that goes over the clutch linkage and I do have the newer style bracket.  Everything looks good in there. 

What do you guys think about adding another bearing at the end of the actuator rod, doubling them up, to add adjustment?


I think I need to pull the trans and clutch cases.... :(

  I'd check the primary side myself.  Sounds like a pressure plate spring issue' or the three mount bolts on the cover are not completely/evenly tightened.  If you have the three normal clutch springs and three heavy duty installed they may not be installed at every other position.

  This problem sounds more like something in the basket making the clutch components run un-even.  Also check your primary chain tension while you're inside the case.  Primary chain slap will do that also.
