Message	Decided to drop my tranny today to replace my clutch disk from an RPS Sport Street to RPS Sport 6Puck, and figure out this weird noise here: La-Z-Link So I drop my tranny and found that the ring gear around the flywheel had some slight play in it. Took off the flywheel and noticed that the small welds that hold the ring gear to the flywheel cracked on each bolt. I bought this RPS flywheel from Z1 a little over a year ago, any chance of a warranty replacement? Notice the amount of play in each of these pics And my Z is my daily driver. So I guess my only option is to put the trans back in so I can get to work on Monday then pull it again for another flywheel :( oh well
