Does anyone have a good photo of the brake pedal return spring set up? I have a 52 3100. Just finished routing new front brake lines, it's been apart so long i don't recall how and where the spring connects and is there a rod that goes with it? Cant get a clear enough idea from the shop manual.

Thanks
Joe

Joe,
I have that picture, I would just need to dig it up for you. Maybe his weekend. I think you're right. The brake spring connects to the brake pedal, then to an "extension rod" that connects to the little tabs that come inward from the frame under the exhaust.
I'll do some digging because a picture says a thousand words.

Joe,
I'm still looking for my camera cable to upload a good picture from my "old shop camera" to the computer. I have a really good one of everything all cleaned up. The fuzzy one is when I tried to take a picture of the camera screen. In the meantime, I ran out to the farm and took a couple pics of a parts truck. This is on a 51 Chev 1/2 with a 3spd.

The clutch spring connects to the clutch fork and then that has a 1/4" (?) diameter rod that goes to the pedal. The brake has the spring and then the little spring rod extension.

The springs attach to the frame on the little tabs that stick out under the exhaust. The brake goes to the top and the clutch to the bottom.

I am also looking for a good picture of the return springs, along with shifting linkage for 3 on the tree and clutch linkage.
