Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

Hey guys, I am either going to have to repair this or purchase a new one if they are available....so that leads to my question...what's the best way to repair this? I know...fill weld it and grind smooth....which I am terrible at. haha Are new ones produced? As you can see from the wear...I doubt it will last a very long time under the load of a new pressure plate. :chevy:

Can you get a more clear picture?

I was looking here but could not find it. Lots of other good stuff.

I also have one, I won't be needing anymore when I do my swap. Same deal postage and it's yours.

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

Thanks man! If it's in good shape SOLD! lol! :chevy:

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

Thanks for the links! Took a look, but they only have the rods and bushings. Not this piece that I could find...course I don't even know what it is supposed to be called. lol Will have to look in the manual.

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

Thanks man! PM sent.

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

Here's the pics tj. Can have the whole rod assembly or I'll ship just the fitting.....Up to you

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

Just the fitting would be awesome. Let me know on shipping. Thanks!

No o fence but that one don't look any better than the one you have i would braze yours up or get a new one

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

The pic does it no justice. Other than grease and dirt it's a solid piece. Pic taken in the barn while dark. It's also a free part that I'd comfortably run with no problem.

Never ordered from LMC so I never checked.

63C10: I noticed it looked worn out, but since I don't have any spares I figured a couple to keep in the glove box just in case is better than none at all! haha But you mentioned it's solid so that's awesome. :chevy:

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

After checking Orange County truck and car shop, Classic Parts of America, Napa, and O'reilly auto I didn't think to check LMC so I checked here. Thanks to all those for Helping rather than make a big deal about it. :chevy:

Pm me your address TJ and I'll mail it to you. You won't have any issues with it. Any other clutch linkage parts you need?

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

Is the notch suppose to be in the round shaft?

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

According to the pictures of new ones I don't think so. Due to the fact those parts are never lubed the notch would appear after many years of use....Heck they lasted 50 years! lol I am sure it would last many more to, but rather have new. haha

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

that is wear

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

I'm a welder and see a easy repair on that part...weld it and file it back to shape.

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

The notch looked machined flat....if its from wear, I would replace with a new part for $13. I will try and get home before dark and get better pics and relook at it.

Re: Is this piece of clutch linkage available?
 

I looked at the part again last night TJ and I have to agree with the forum. Downside of a dark barn.....the part does have a groove worn into it. With that being said, I have no problem shipping it if you still want it. It has been mentioned that it is an easy fix, but the option is your to decide. Just let me know.

that will more than likely not be the only piece that needs welding. the holes that the linkage ends go in are also worn as are the other linkage ends. this has all been brought up more than once.
