Does anyone have a good picture of the hydraulic clutch on a '61? Looking for a good photo of a clutch fork as well. Maybe a casting number for the fork?
The one I have seems to either have a weird angle / bed in it comparing it to diagrams in the shop manual. At full throw, the slave cylinder doesn't even push on the pin connected to the fork leading me to think the fork is somehow wrong??? I doubt bent??? Everything else looks correct (pin, bracket, slave, etc). Bracket was straightened back out, pin is new. I'll try to post a picture of what I have.
UPDATE: FORK WAS BENT. Got a better one than what I have and found a 2" bend that wasn't supposed to be there. Attempted to put in the replacement fork and couldn't slip it in like the bent one came out (need to pull tranny now).
Also still looking for parts... See my posting in classifieds.
