    64 Dart Gt 4 speed won’t shift into gear ??

    So the clutch is releasing when a friend steps on the clutch pedal? If the clutch fork isn't square on the throw out bearing have you pulled it out and reinstalled it to try to square it up? How does the pivot bracket it slips into look?

    64 Dart Gt 4 speed won’t shift into gear ??

    Does this mean the fork is going forward and the pressure plate is releasing the clutch between the pressure plate and the flywheel? Did you see a gap or able to move the disc?

    64 Dart Gt 4 speed won’t shift into gear ??

    All caps is yelling. Not sure why you think it isnt. If there weren't issues on install I still have doubts that the pilot is too tight. If it is, it's a conclusiom to reach by order of elimination to get to that conclusion. Not assume it's all bad and pull the Trans to check. This was my...

    64 Dart Gt 4 speed won’t shift into gear ??

    Not sure what you are yelling about. He still hasn't confirmed that whether the clutch is releasing. I would rather confirm I had to tear it all apart before doing so, wouldn't you?? When you stab a crank with a transmission most know if it's in or not. And whether you are forcing the pilot...

    64 Dart Gt 4 speed won’t shift into gear ??

    Sounds odd. Both retaining springs on the bearing should be clipped to the clutch fork and the fork's pivot spring in the hole for the pivot. Adding the clutch linkage spring should not effect the contact of the fork to the bearing.

    64 Dart Gt 4 speed won’t shift into gear ??

    If the engine starts up without a gear being engaged and doesnt move and the pilot shaft doesn't howl, i have doubts it is your pilot bushing if you installed a new one. Could be, but not probable. Linkage or fork could also be the culprit. 10 or so years ago I had a not obviously cracked...

    Hagerty insurance

    There was no laughing. Hagerty sent him East instead of west to where I was. The car wouldnt move. That half a block is over 1/4 mile. Blocks here can be 1/4 or 1/2 mile.

    Hagerty insurance

    Ive been with them over 20 years. I'm switching to grundy, just because of the lack of real support for emergency roadside (at least where i live). I've used it twice in the last 5 years. The first time I was a half a block from home and the cheap Towing companies they do business with...

    The 4.7 I'm my 2010 Ram 1500 has over 196000 on it now. Still runs great. Changed the valve stem seals a while back. Other than that it's been trouble free (knock on wood). I hate the 545rfe the Trans though.

    That does bring back memories. Almost how the bowe looked when I was done with it. John, from John's auto upholstery in Longmont, CO did the fitting , stretching and shrinking to install the top, and made a well liner for it custom. My car was from a salt state, not a total rust bucket, but...

    Chrysler brings back the Dodge Dart

    I've been biting my tongue on this since the new Dart was announced. I was raised on mopars and have always had my core allegiance with them. It seems to me that Chrysler/Fiat in its ultimate wisdom do not take the mopar muscle car community seriously. I vowed year ago, I'd never own a new...
