Title: out put shaft
Post by: h22Accord on May 04, 2005, 08:49:17 AM
i just got my samurai about two weeks ago and i think that there is a prob with the trany or cluch   with the motor  running and the cluch  not depressed the out put shaft on the trany the one going in to the t case  spins and there it a grinding sound  but when u push the cluch in the sound  stops and the shaft  does not sping  i know the sound is not good but  is it normal  for the shaft to be spining with the cluch not depressed

First a q:
does it drive?
because I don't think that shaft should be spinning when it isn't in gear.

your front input bearing is shot.

or the throwout bearing is tuching the pressure plate a little causing it to spin. give the cable a little more slack and see if it stops .
the outpuit shaft is probably spinning becouse their is oil in it causing enough drag to spin the outpuit shaft.probably normal

I would bet $ on the cluster gear bearings. and yes if there is nothing on the back of the trany or the t-case is in neutral the output will spin with the engine running trany in neutral and the clutch out

This must be a common Suzuki problem.
Heard it a bunch of times on Sammys.
Even heard it once on our own Kick.
We replaced clutch components, (including the throw-out bearing) and it went away.
