1xe Transmission issue

Post by liquidsteel » Sun Aug 02, 2020 11:27 am

Hello, about 4 yrs ago I had my transmission rebuilt that included new clutch disks and bearings. After about 250 hours of service it started to slip. I adjusted it one notch and it no longer slips but now I have a new problem. It is extremely difficult to get it out of gear(it requires two arms to do it and is difficult at best).
I have a paragon service manual and it mentions having two adjustment holes which allows you to make 1/2 adjustment to the clutch. I can only find one bolt hole on the screw collar. If someone has a 1xe transmission I would like to know if they have the 1/2 adjustment hole (two bolt holes). Maybe I am not looking in the right place.
If the 1/2 adjustment hole isn't part of the transmission, does anyone know what else i could try inorder to make the shifting easier other than moving the clutch bolt back to the original hole that made it slip.

thanks in advance

Remove the adjusting bolt and move it to the hole to the right.

My screw collar looks different from yours. It has only one hole. I think that is part of the problem. The transmission is on a K engine. Thanks again for your help
