Yes, please take pictures and post them. I have the SM465 with the spring on clutch fork bracket to frame, but that appears to be all. Since my clutch keeps going out of adjustment, maybe another spring would help. Also, the correct arrangement of the attachment hardware for the "lower pushrod assembly" (or adjustment rod) would be nice to know: i.e. cotter pin, flat washer, wave washer, bell crank - or whatever the correct sequence is.
Perhaps Keith Seymore can post on this, since he was there in the plant when these trucks were built, and he has a 100% correct specimen to look at.
