Well after having some fun today, my clutch pedal decides to slam to the floor. So after looking it over the return spring has snapped and the piece that goes from the threaded rod to the shift fork has decided to disappear. Where can I find this piece? Already got the return spring from autozone. I am guessing the junkyard or make my own.

Also you may want to take a close look at the equalizer bar, even if the spring broke that part should not have gone missing.

It can fall out. The spring kinda keeps everything together.

If no junk yards got them, Jeffs broncograve yard should have it. Possibly your parts store would have it as well.

Hmmm, mine has a nut on both sides of the fitting on the equalizer so it can't fall off even if the spring broke.

Thank you for the help. It either fell off or unthreaded not sure which as the threads were clean. Never looked under there or at that specific part til it happened. Weird as hell though, thank god for clutchless shifting!

I needed the nipple that went over the threads. Found one in the junkyard for a dollar. Looked at Jbg but his is just a threaded rod with a point so it wouldnt work.

Thanks for the help guys.

Try Dennis carpenter or melvins classic ford parts. Ford used two or three different ones over the years, some times cars and trucks had the same kind.

 

[Moze]

Cool. I found one gonna put a tac weld on it to the nut so it wont happen again.
