1934 BB Truck clutch bushing
 

I have a 1934 Ford BB Truck that I am rebuilding. It has the heavy duty 4 speed transmission and 4 banger B motor.
My question is: Will the brake/clutch bushing from regular Model B pickup work on the BB Truck?
Thank you for any info.

Denali,

Are you referring to the clutch and brake pedals, or the shaft that the throwout fork is attached to? I installed new bushings in the bell housing and pedals for my grandfathers '34 years ago and didn't have any issue sourcing the bushings. I probably get them from Mac's back in the day. I could very well be mistaken, but I believe the pedal bushings and throwout shaft bushings are the same size. I will have to check on that. I also installed grease fittings in the bell housing so I can grease the throwout shaft.

hope you found the parts you need. The best way to know what to look for is to consult a period Ford Chassis Parts Book. I’m away from home right now but otherwise would have looked up the correct part numbers for you. From memory, which is no longer terribly reliable. The bushings for the clutch fork are the same on cars, pickups and Model Bb trucks.

Both the BB truck clutch pedal bushing and the two in the transmission bell housing for the clutch release shaft were the same as those used on 1932-34 passenger cars and commercial vehicles. The part number is B-7508.
