Description
The clutch fork pivot ball takes constant abuse in mechanical clutch systems. Every pedal stroke generates friction and load at this critical wear point, and over decades of use the pivot surface can become pitted, worn flat, or damaged--leading to sloppy clutch feel, inconsistent engagement, and accelerated fork wear. This QuickTime non-adjustable fork pivot provides a direct OEM-quality replacement that threads into the bellhousing and restores proper clutch fork geometry.
Dimensionally, this pivot matches GM part number 3729000 exactly: 13/16"-16 threads engage the bellhousing boss securely, while the 21/32" ball diameter seats correctly in the clutch fork's pivot pocket. The 1-1/2" overall length positions the fork at the factory-specified angle for optimal throwout bearing travel. A 3/8" Allen socket in the base allows straightforward installation with common hand tools--no special equipment required.
This pivot stud is specifically designed for use with MDL's QuickTime bellhousing conversions for mechanical clutch release applications. Compatible housings include the LS-to-GM four-speed pattern (MD-401-1202), GM 168-tooth small block/big block-to-GM four-speed pattern (MD-401-1200), and the BOP aluminum bell-to-Muncie/T-10/GM TKO pattern (MD-401-1210BOP). If you're running one of these conversions with a mechanical fork setup and your original pivot is worn or you need to restore factory clutch operation, this is the correct replacement component.
