1949 Ford

[Rayfry]

Changing the throw out bearing on a 1949 Ford three on the tree. Can’t find the clutch fork anti rattle spring. It’s just a small u shapped wire that holds the clutch fork tight from rattling. No one sells it anymore. Is there a replacement for the original?

This is an old thread link but it covers all the late 40s & early 50s clutch throw out set ups.

There's some on epay, kind of pricey. https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw..._dmd=1&_ipg=60

Those are the later types. They are not the same as the 8A part.
