Can you ID this mystery part on my Y-BlocK?
All,
On my 55 F-100 project https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=273280 I have spotted an unidentified bracket with a nylon roller on a post. It is attached at the left rear, see photos, marked with a red arrow. This motor is a 292 transplant mated to a T98 4-speed. Based solely on the oil pan and dip stick (photos) it seems it came from a non-truck. The block casting is. EDB 6015E above the oil filter The head casting is ECG-T Can anyone tell me what this nylon roller part is? Is has no function on my truck. Allen

Looks like its for a clutch Zbar or crosshaft mount for a standard shift.

Trucks and '55/'57 Birds use a rear sump oil pan. (photo 2) with the dipstick located on the side of the block, not in front. (photo 3 & 4) Assuming the truck has clutch linkage, but it's set up differently? . Last edited by dmsfrr; 07-04-2020 at 07:33 PM. |

Correct, the truck has an original clutch linkage for the F-100 with the 4-speed T98 transmission. A lever on the brake/clutch pedal support rod actuates the clutch from the rear. Perhaps there is more room underneath the cab in trucks vs sedans. The “z-bar “ is not used.

Re: Can you ID this mystery part on my Y-BlocK?
Quite a few trucks have this "feature". None, that I am aware of, have experienced catastrophic oil-pan contact. Most annoying is that the oil drain is right above the axle.
