The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Big Bolts 51 chevy coe clutch linkage

Hi
Anyone have a pic of the clutch linkage from the pedal to the bell housing. For some reason, the linkage on my truck is not lining up. The link is pushing the l shaped clutch adjusting rod papers to be pushing outward
Thanks

Chris,
Here are links to four pictures from my 50 Chevy COE. The pictures start with the firewall where you can see the clutch pedal bumper and progress to the adjustment nut on the clutch fork,the last 3 photos taken from underneath the truck. I am hoping you can orient yourself by other recognizable parts. Good luck and let me know if I can help further.

Hey Kent
That is mighty kind of you to take the time to send these pics. I really appreciate you doing this. The pics are a big help. I sometimes get stuck as I have no truck around to look at.
I hooked up the linkage as your pics indicate. The linkage connecting to the clutch fork looks to be on a bit of an angle. It appears to be on an outward angle. Just wondering now if that is correct.
Thanks
Chris

Chris,
I found some old photos taken during the tear down of the truck. I don't know if these help but here they are. I would be sure the pivot is not turned around which would change the orientation of the rod that pushes the clutch.
