Greetings:
I just finished installing an ACT 2600 clutch kit. Everything came apart, and back together decent. Here is my question. First through fifth upshift work 100%, reverse has no issues. Downshifting from 5th to 4th, 4th to 3rd, and 2nd to first work fine too, its when I down shift into 2nd gear, as soon as I release clutch and the clutch engages I get a bad vibration, it shakes the dashboard!!! then once the pedal is fully released 2nd does WORK. So, in a nut shell, downshifting to 2nd, push pedal in, pull into 2nd gear.. FINE, but once pedal is released, hardcore .. Chatter!!?, Vibration!?!? Thanks in advance.
 
northern:
a organic street/strip disc, sprung, with a maximum of 400ft.lbs/tq clamping force.
I bought the kit, used.. only had 2k miles of ride time, and came from a friend. The entire clutch aspect, I.E driving, shifting, etc
is perfect, except downshifting into 2nd.

issue solved..
I had my clutch master cylinder rod adjusted to far out. Turned it in a little, and it shifts perfect now.
thanks.
