You need to resize your pictures, they're to big.

Re: Warrenty Item ?

Just a small return spring to keep the throw our bearing off the pressure plate fingers

Re: Warrenty Item ?

Since chevy wouldn't replace mine under warranty, I got a new one from Chevys of the 40's in Vancouver WA

Re: Warrenty Item ?

Sooo do you think there is a common problem with this "link"

There was no warning of this failure just went out while stopped at a red light!

I found a used one locally, and I am now up and running.
Hard to believe this failure under compression

Re: Warrenty Item ?

Did it load without scraping the front bumper?
Mine is a bit lower and it keeps me up worrying.

Re: Warrenty Item ?

AAA is great !

He did use some 2 by's when he loaded and unloaded, he was concerned also when he loaded, but all is good.
He did mention that there was a dove tail truck that had a "hydrolic tail" that did not have to use boards.
This was my last tow this year, 4 for other vehicles and one for me !

No warranty. User error. Scheduled maintenance includes clutch linkage inspection and replacement at 55 years. You got an extra 5 years.

Re: Warrenty Item ?

I've never seen one break before that i can remember, I wonder if some one tightened the nut on the end up with an air wrench at some time and over torqued it.
