Clutch Problems

[AussieinNC]

Ok...apart from the missing lock pins in the rod ends...

I have a couple of questions...

When you push the pedal down, does the rod that comes out of the cab move down?

If No, the rod has come off of the pedal pivot and needs to be replaced...plus the clip to retain it...

If yes, does the small threaded rod that goes into the clutch fork, move backwards?

If no, one of the pivot levers on the cross link has a broken weld and needs to be repaired....

If yes, but the clutch still does not release, it is one of the following issues...

The release fork has come off of its pivot...remove the trans to repair replace the broken retainer clip...or

The release bearing and clutch diaphragm are faulty....remove trans to repair or replace the damage...

Each of the release rods should have a hairpin retainer clip in place....

The smaller threaded rod that goes back to the release form is missing a V shaped wedge between the adjuster rod nut and the fork...

There should be two nuts on that smaller rod to lock the adjustment of the fork clearance.

Ok...remove the cover plate under the bell housing and try and get a pic of the release bearing and fork....

Have the gf press down on the clutch pedal and take a pic with the pedal down...

Believe it or not, pics work best...a picture saves a thousand words...

Dont worry, we will get this right...
