1932 clutch issue
Hi. I changed my 11’’ clutch to a 10.
On the new one, I don’t have the adjusters. So now, I have to much play in the pedal. The release bearing has a longer travel to push the pressure plate. Except the fact I have to make a longer pushrod, is there a risk for the bearing guide or something else ? French flathead, 1939 trans, original chassis and pedal assy. Thanks |

Re: 1932 clutch issue
I apologize for not having the answer.
I would rather find the guy who rebuilds them, and keep the older one. Your location may make it difficult, but somebody there ( thinking region ) must be capable.

the « old » one is almost new, when the engine was rebuilt. Engine come from a french truck. I red some advice on the H.A.M.B. it is highly recommended to change the 11 to a 10’’. That’s what I did.Drilled, threaded and balanced the flywheel with the new pressure plate. I can’t figure put the 11 back on. |

Re: 1932 clutch issue
Will a 10" even fit in a '32 transmission. I'm no expert, but isn't a 9" as large as you can go without grinding the inside of the transmission case? Someone with more knowledge than I have should jump in here.

Not sure with a 11 ? My problem is the throwout bearing is to far away from the plate. Last edited by Harold Degand; 11-23-2021 at 10:50 AM. |

Re: 1932 clutch issue
The new reproduction 10" Long type clutches don't have the adjustable fingers. A lot of folks here in the US still send there original clutch covers out for rebuild and adjustment. Fort Wayne Clutch in Indiana is a common place to send them here. This may not be so common in Europe. Even finding a good core in the EU could be challenging. Those old French SUMB military trucks had big truck stuff on them and those 11" jobs are pretty heavy. It really slows the throttle response down.

Re: 1932 clutch issue
Re : Fort Wayne Clutch. Here's a post I made on the H.A.M.B. a couple of months ago :
I just got off the phone with Fort Wayne Clutch and I thought the folks here might be interested on how the conversation went. As a bit of background, I found a core left over from when I changed the clutch in my '51 Ford back in 2016. It was complete, in the original box, and had all of the original paperwork, including a sheet that said it was returnable for a $20 core charge as well as a UPS return label. Since I purchased it five years ago, I called them to make sure the return would go through and they told me that they didn't want it, as they were selling all new components now. This aroused my curiosity, and I asked him where they were able to get new components these days. He answered, and this is a direct quote : "Oh, some guy named 'Wong Fu'." |

Re: 1932 clutch issue
I’ll take some pics ASAP.
Parts come from Mac’s. We don’t have NAPA stores here in EU. To save money, every order I make takes 3 to 4 months for delivery. I assume that choice but not easy to work with. |

Re: 1932 clutch issue
I have to send my cores to them to get them overhauled. They don't have the old Borg & Beck stuff in stock and no one reproduces them. I wouldn't be surprised if they sell new stuff instead of doing exchanges. The new ones likely cost less than the overhauls. You get what you pay for though. I have never done an exchange with them yet.

Re: 1932 clutch issue
It’s a shame for a seller like Mac’s to sell parts they fit but couldn’t work.
I didn’t notice when I bought it there’s no adjuster. And when I installed it, I thought it will not be a problem. Very disappointed. |

Re: 1932 clutch issue
Looks like you have the B-7521A 3 9/16 " long.The 34 is 4 11/16". V8 Ford sales has one that is 4 inches long.Would that work?
