Cool, I'll keep that in mind, but if that's a problem you'd think that would be a mandatory thing to do when you change your clutch. A couple of us put our heads togeather and thought of all the components that are involved, and came up with getting new clutch springs, since I guess when you put in new friction plates you should change everything including the springs etc since they all kind of wear together, and are sold in kits that way which makes sense. Of course I took the cheap stunter route, and did just the friction plates since my problem before was that I could barely clutch up 2nd gear..

I'm going to change those springs and let you all know what happens incase anyone else has this problem later.
