Wish you had done a video of this. I am thinking I may have to pull my drivetrain out for that irritating squeal I've been getting when the clutch starts to grab from a dead stop. Still not sure where it's coming from though.....

I've got a manual transmission in my C5Z, but this does help. Still haven't convinced myself that I really feel like tackling this kind of job all by myself, though. I guess I'll think more on it when I have a better feel about where that noise is coming from.

Thanks....

Yeah, I'm thinking it may be best for me to take out each drivetrain component separately instead of the whole kit and kaboodle as one unit.

I just really hate to have to buy more than one transmission jack if I can avoid it.
