I then looked inside the cup that takes the pivot ball and found the retainer bent, so i took it out and was trying to bend it back in to what looked like an orgional shape, but the 37 year old metal gave way and broke.

I went to the local AutoZone and found nothing and then to O"crappies and they are ordering me the ball b/c they can't find a clutch fork or the retainer so they're hoping to get the retainer w/ the ball.

I said all that to say this: what is the proper way to reinstall the clutch fork on a 67 3spd Tranny? and does anyone have a good 4 or 5 spd close or within a reasonable distance from Memphis, TN? thanks sswj
