'59 Plymouth Forum

I feel so stupid. I stared at the first page for the last 2 days, wondering why the last post was by Roger but my last post was the last one I see! Anyway, yes, it looks like I'll be driving her again soon! Thanks very much to all!!

John, yeah that's it!! There is also a threaded rod with the adjusting nut, which is still on my car but I need the rod that fits over it and the hardware to fasten it to the fork. Let me know how much and I'll send a money order ASAP. Thanks!

Roger, Thank you, I will e-mail him tomorrow. I see now that there are two ends, one on the pedal side of the torque shaft, and one on the fork side. The upper one (pedal side) is still there because I didn't need to remove it to get the torque stud off. I'm just missing the bottom one. Also I doubl...

The end I need is the one below the stud I think, because it attaches to the clutch fork. It would actually resemble an eye bolt. I looked up Big M auto parts, and came up with many pages of results. Can you give me a link to this guy, John Fowler, or give more details about his site??

I did a little more research and found in my '58 manual the part is called "clutch fork release rod". No mention in the '59 supplement, so I'm assuming they're the same. There is also an adjusting nut, but I can get that at any hardware store. Also realized that I haven't tried Andy Bernba...

I could try to borrow a camera and take a pic of mine. I took the sides and the top off but not the bottom. Still trying to get the top back to the way it was!!

Roger, yes I also tried Chet's Auto Parts and Mitchell Motor Parts, who both had the torque stud i needed, and no luck. I don't see how I would need two, unless it's a two-piece part. All it does is connect the torque tube to the clutch fork, activating the clutch. Really wish I hadn't moved 3 times...

I don't have a fax machine, if you could just post it that would be great! I'll still keep searching too. Somebody must have it!

Hmmm... not finding any results at all with that PN. I'll keep trying. Faulkner posted the exploded diagram of the clutch linkage years ago; it can still be viewed under my posts if that helps anyone

Hey guys,


I know it's been a while, but just a few hours ago I finally put the new torque stud in my savoy, only to find out I'm missing yet another part. In the old diagram it's called "end" and it's drawing # 6-24-1. Can someone post the Mopar part # please? Thanks!!!

Hey everybody, did you see the '59 SF Sportone set on ebay? looks to be NOS

Mike

Hey dan,
I was just referred to one in MD by some friends (and fellow car nuts). If that guy still needs one, i could give more info... he was strongly recommended to me and of course does NOT use bondo!


Mike

yeah, if you don't mind. that is a better pic. so you have to be 18 in the Netherlands, huh?

thanks! i wish i could get the other one to fit, but oh well. yours ( or the one you ride in) looks good too!

ARRRRGGGH!!! Too big!!! when i shrink them with microsoft photo shop they look like the one i have now--"blocky"


Well, that looks better, but i agree with you matthew--the other pic looks better. actually i've always liked that pic better
