clutch problems

[sclose55]

I have a 1974 CJ5 that was just a frame an body when I got it. I have a 1985 corvette tpi 350 and a sm465 with a Dana 300 . I have the clutch master cylinder from a 1986 yj an the slave cylinder from novak I am getting a good extension from the slave cylinder but it seems the clutch fork is not disingageing the clutch.any know what clutch fork I should use. Thanks

Are you using the truck bell housing and 11" clutch?

Yes 11 inch and chevy truck bell housing. It is like the fork needs to be bent more toward the front of the motor not enough adjustment on the slave clyinder.

Get a longer throw out bearing.

Great idea with a little looking novak offers an adjustable throw out bearing that will work thanks for the idea. Steve

The truck bell housings require a longer movement in order for it to release. Myself knowing this I used a car bellhousing and all was well.

Thank you. I don't know about the adjustable bearing, bearings come in different lengths, you might check at a normal parts store first for the longer bearing.
