Mustang II clutch fork

Gael · Nov 18, 2005

Does anyone have a picture of their clutch fork? I need a pic of the Mustang II one with the rad 4, not any other.

Also, does anyone by any miracle have one that's in good shape? I'm wondering if that's the cause of my clutch tension issues.

Thanks in advance.

Did you ever get your pic? If not I can get you one this weekend.

best I have, but probably not the rigth angle for you...

Do you guys think it's possible that my clutch fork may be getting weakened?

I'm trying to figure out ideas for what could cause such weak clutch pedal tension on my car. It takes 0 effort to push it.

The resistance is caused by the springs in the pressure plate. My guess is the pressure plate is going bad. Other than the weak pedal pressure, have you noticed any other problems when you drive it? Any slipping when you start off or accelerate?

It's a brand new clutch/pressure plate, centerforce dual friction. Also a brand new clutch cable.

So too many new things to single out any specific part.

Just because the clutch feels easier to press in doesn't make it a bad clutch. By design, It could have been made to feel easier. Is the clutch actually slipping when you accelerate it hard?

Put in a Centerforce II clutch in my friends' Ranger 4WD years back and it did seem to feel easier to operate. Could be the design...

Just before the clutch cable broke in my V6 4 speed II, the pedal felt spongy and soft when depressed.... until it actually broke I was dumbfounded.

If anything else, it does sound like a weak pressure plate.

I have the exact opposite problem that you have

Yeah, my clutch is pretty hard as well. Geal, what type of clutch did you install? If there are no slipping probs I would be looking for that for my II.

It's a centerforce dual friction clutch and pressure plate.

its not uncommon with yrs of abuse for the fork to bend forward over time..
i have heard that the clutch your using has a softer feel to it..

this is my clutch fork in good working shape.
