77 The Black Truck "Ratbag"

I would say not Dean, the throwout bearing is firmly in place in the steel fork opening, and as we talked I think the tangs are for assembly purposes.

here is a link to the NP208 service manual...

The tab on the left is what I`m looking at, problem or not?

I agree with Sean but I`m running out of time and 20 bucks in the states is 60 bucks here!

Yeah paid $60 for the one I bought, got it cheap on eBay though.....until shipping was added

Weld a new tab on it...

Its tin.

Poking around on goggle and everyone else that had the same thing replaced it...said the bearing stuck a bit.

with that in mind, its a PITA to pull it all again to change the clutch fork!

Lemme check our local supply house pretty sure that fork is 20 bucks or so

Dean, this is the oil dipstick...

I tried the dipstick out on the CC 454, the oil measurement was exactly the same as the factory stick and it has the add/full marks in the same spot.
Biggest problem I see is the dipstick tube is straight on this one, and the factory 454 is curved toward the front of the engine.

I'm bringing it along...

Also I have those two clutch arms on order, if they look the same I'll bring the NAPA part with me. They should be in Monday afternoon or sooner.

Straight one should work good Dave!
Thanks!

Picked up a nice HD 3 core rad the proper brake lines for the hydro boost and some other hoses for the hydro that I was missing.

The one hose that I needed has the wrong end on it...I think. Play with that later.

I feel like I owe you so much already Buddy!

 

[tRustyK5]

i'm not worried about it, why should you be? I hate selling stuff, would rather see somebody I like get good use out of it than sit around here collecting dust.
