No sir, replaced the fork and pivot without moving the trans at all. When I was under there, I was like there is no way it will go on. Started the fork spring on the pivot, lined up the flat spots on the TO bearing and pushed fork all the way to the rear and moved the fork up and down slowly...
Follow up on the noise. It was the crank pulley bolts being to long. I replaced the 3/4" long with 1/2" long bolts and the noise is gone.
Thanks for all the replies

An update. Anyone have the right bolt length that is used on the crank pulley. I did some retightening on the bolts on balancer and the crank pulley. Did the balancer bolt first, no change in sound. Tightened the pulley bolts and was WAY worse. I backed them off and sound seems to have gone...
I did it. Had all the machining done but I put it together. I double checked all the torques but you never know? The engine is externally balanced and has the right flywheel and balancer. The other thing I did besides the clutch fork was check the vacuum on the engine and it stayed right at...
About 200 miles on engine. Just started making this noise after I replaced the clutch fork?? I can push with one finger one the clutch pedal and it goes away?
You guys were right. I did replace the pivot and clutch fork without moving the trans. It seemed like there was no way it was going into the clip area of the T/O bearing but there is just that one angle where it went right on. That's great but now I have some kind of engine noise that...
Hello, I have a 69 coronet with a 440 - 4 spd. I had an issue with the clutch fork and pivot. Changed them out on the car without taking out trans. Now, I started the car to adjust the clutch and getting a loud noise that appears to be coming from front of engine. The T/O bearing is not...
Hello,
I have a 69 coronet and a 69 road runner. Looking at the outer door felt (wrong word) on both cars at the rear of the door, there is about a 2" area that seems to be missing a piece. There is a hole there but I was just wondering if something was ever there, like a little extension...
Thanks for the replies. I should get the parts in early this week and I will let you know how it goes. I can already see some cussing and finger cramping for this one!
Hello,
I have a 69 Coronet with a 440 and 833 trans. I rebuilt the car and just trying to work out the bugs. On the fork, I adjusted the throw out bearing so it did not touch the fingers on the pressure plate. After driving for about a mile, I heard the throw out bearing again. I went...
I picked this one up and am really lucky that I have been able to use our shop to work on the cars. Had to replace a lot of sheet metal on this one. I don't mind the welding but haaaate bodywork. I can have a small ding and end up having waves in a whole panel. Same with this one as my...
A 69 Coronet I got and started in February 2017. I'm definitely not a pro at this but like learning on the way. Like if you cut out to much metal, you just buy a bigger piece to put in! I put in a 4 spd and rebuilt the 440 but had all the machining done. I like the wild colors and know the...
Not sure if this ever happened to anyone but when I pulled my new shifter out of the box and raised it in the air, it sang like King Arthurs sword! Or it might have been my wallet crying?
