need help trying to locate a part
« on: March 19, 2009, 09:22:39 pm »
hello, what i am trying to find is a clutch fork pivot ball. i have seen all kinds but there different than mine. this one has predrilled holes so it can be lubed from a zert fitting. its off a 1986 chevy c30 1 ton 454 with a sm465 tranny. i was orginally going to switch to an auto but with the economy could not afford to right now and need the truck on the road so i figure i would just replace the shot clutch. got the new clutch in and ready to go. had to get a new clutch fork also. everything was going good but no auto part stores i have found even have a link to this perticular one. any help in the right dirrection would be appreciated.



thank you
jim

Is the grease fitting the only difference? If so drill and tap one without it for a fitting!
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs
