Description
A worn, cracked, or rusted clutch fork makes smooth clutch engagement impossible and can leave you stranded. This steel clutch release fork replaces the original component in early Small Block Ford applications, restoring proper mechanical linkage function and consistent pedal feel. The wire spring design was factory-spec for vehicles produced before February 15, 1968, making this the correct replacement for authenticity-focused restorations and reliable street builds alike.
At precisely 9-1/4 inches long, this fork delivers the correct geometry for smooth clutch operation. The spring-type lever houses the clutch release bearing and transfers pedal input through the mechanical linkage system, pivoting on the bellhousing ball stud to actuate the pressure plate fingers. Steel construction resists the flexing that can cause inconsistent engagement, while the black painted finish provides corrosion protection.
This direct replacement fits 1965-1968 Ford applications including Mustang, Falcon, Fairlane, and Comet models equipped with 289 and 302 cubic inch Small Block Ford engines. Designed specifically for 3-speed and 4-speed transmissions with 6-bolt bellhousing configurations. Essential for maintaining proper clutch function in mechanical linkage systems.
