Didn't the truck use a ball?



The car pivots are usually riveted to the bellhousing.

Hi royce, reason i asked for clutch fork is that the pivot bracket riveted to bellhousing is totally different to customline type fork, i see you asking about that pivot bracket, so here is pic of whats on mine and perhaps fork application. OR make angle bracket to fit customline fork? as a solution to fix. regards bill.

Bill, the bracket you show has 2 slots in it. The piece I am talking about is flat and sits in those slots and the fork pivots on it The clip holds the 3 parts together. You can see by the shape of your bracket that a clutch fork would not be able to pivot on it. The piece I am talking about would allow you to use a common Ford fork

OK, i thought that could be so but of the 4 ford forks i have, they seem too short from that pivot point to center of the box locating hole.Smile

Royce.  I have a stack of bellhousings in which I can remove one of those riveted clutch fork pivots from and send to you.  I'm assuming we're talking about the common one which is just an angled piece about an inch high with a tab on it to hold the anti-rattle spring.   I’d have to check but I believe the FE pivot is also the same.  Just give the word and I’ll drop a pivot piece in the mail.
