Well blow me down, I missed the earlier threads as well.

Thanks for posting your experience/solution @tdhyden79 !

Could a "clutch pulsation damper" be a part of why the Bronco's clutch feels so spongy, "slow" to engage, vague, and how the engagement point seems to change between each shift??

I would be most interested @tdhyden79 in any change to clutch feel after you remove this thing with your solutioin linked above. If it moves the clutch feel in a "regular" direction I'm going to remove it fur sur.

Do it immediately, if not sooner! The mush is gone.

Just ordered. Jegs had everything on a one-stop shop but the coupler was a couple dollars more.

Thanks! I'm ordering the parts as well.

I assume bleeding is necessary after install?

Yes, you have to bleed it. I have a Motive Products Power Bleeder that I use for flushing brake lines on all of my vehicles. I purchased the cap for the Bronco

If you need the whole kit use this part number

it makes bleeding the clutch a one person job.

I use Amsoil brake fluid, I'm a dealer so the price makes sense.

If you want to buy "off the shelf" fluid, use Prestone Max DOT4, it has a higher boiling point than other brands which makes it better for Brake/Cluth applications.
