Clutch Linkage

[Powerhouse Ranch]

Your asking questions for a possible fix, and others have responded with valid questions. There could be several answers to your problem. But @AuroraGirl we can help you if you investigate and make sure things are connected right and the best way to answer you is if you provide visual.

Are the bushings in the Clutch/brake assembly new or original. Can you move the pedals side to side? Is the clutch linkage rod new, worn? Does the Z bar have all of it's components? Is it worn at the linkage rod connection? Are all the springs attached correctly and new or old? Can you manipulate the linkage rod with out moving stuff? I provided a couple pic's and don't mimick my spring locatons on the Zbar they are probably not right, just hooked up!

Clearly I am in tngat club because of the headache rqck the bumper and the other bumper. And the plow hookup. And the spare tire carrier. And the pin trailer spring thing for making pulling a simple trailer with a simple pin instead of a ball or clamshell less Bucky and jerking. All of which I neither made or installed. But the hundreds of pounds of static steeel combined with my space age weight reduction makes for a net zero weight change. Probably.

snd who can hate my pattenened sand spreader that’s self powered and functions on the entire surface of the 8ft box.
I also have this cool hidden gas filler to keep uh… siphonera.. from taking gas without looking like they are also high Messing with the wheel tub while holding a gas can.

I unfortunately stepped down from the welding clamp to positive post for plow hydraulic hookup and screw driver ignition to the Boring ways but I’ve always been a rebel


I also have a hipster hood since it’s from a 77, our 80 have a fancy hood but I went counter culture

don’t ask why but I have a 80 and a pre 76 door on my truck and it’s clearly painted to the same but one has the longer shaft and the non locking smoker window and the other don’t

You wouldn’t understand!

at one time.

So I went and looked at some pictures online and found that there is another support for the transition which was never present on my truck... I just ordered it. also I did not realize that the fork has a boot over it until I saw your pictures as again my truck did not have it. I'm going to be doing more research to ensure that I have all of the parts as I'm 95% sure this is the issue.

Yes, I am able to move the pedal side to side. How would I go about fixing that? I did some research and found that my truck was missing a fork boot and support for the transmission which I think could be greatly contributing to the vibrations

what support..?

and that boot is for dust and debris to not get into your bellhousing, i would assume premature clutch and flywheel wear would be the only concern but i could be wrong
\
the pivots of the pedal may be worn out too

There is the main support for the back of the transmission which IS present however, there is another support that goes from the main support to the frame

Dang! All those big springs go to actuate the clutch? Man! But down on the fork all it's got is two little springs. Humm.
