It would only take a mm or two to make the difference from a perfectly good clutch to one that doesn't disengage nearly enough.

The fact that ACT wants the parts back should be enough evidence alone.
The fact that ACT wants the clutch back means what? They want to see what/if anything is wrong before they warranty a part after the OP shit all over them prematurely to the world. That sounds absolutely reasonable to me. I would've at least waited to see if ACT would be scumbags or if they found something wrong before blowing it all over the internet like its a scientifically proven fact.

People today are so quick to speak out. What happened to critical thinking? The scientific process? This forum (to be fair, most forums) reminds me of idiotcracy more often than not. I'm not calling anyone an idiot but it's just the anti-intellectual, mob mentality that exists.

How about some hard facts of what went wrong before making a big deal about ACT. Is that SOOO much to ask? As an owner of their products, I'd really want to know if there is something to watch out for.

The stuff from 8th gen is interesting but not really applicable since it's a different problem specific to HD PPs on that platform.
