Clutch/Pressure Plate R/R

[Canton_Model_A's]

Good day to the fine people at the Barn.

I have a couple of questions that I need to answer.

1. I did an R/R on my clutch and pressure plate.
2. Reassembled it all.

During reassembly I want to replace parts on the shaft that holds the clutch and brake pedal. I know one is a drift pin, I probably want to get a new clutch actuating arm and new clutch pedal. Does anyone potentially have a list of what I need to order from my vendor (Snyder's)

including the 'cams' that go onto the clutch fork shaft.

Thank you all in advance.

Dave

I seriously doubt that you need a new clutch pedal there is a replaceable brass bushing in the pivot hole.

Agree. I've found that even if your pedal is wiggling side to side violently that replacing the bushing will work well.

As long as you have the clutch and brake pedals off, not a bad idea to drill and tap the bottoms of each and install grease fittings.

After you replace the bushings in your clutch and brake pedals, you will likely need to fit them to the shaft. I use a 1" brake cylinder hone (like this one available on the river store - https://www.amazon.com/Powerbuilt-648401-Brake-Cylinder-2-25-Inch/dp/B001G7RB2G/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3MSODYPX8O7N4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.wjkv6R2yQT7ao3bmSsOSFFecBWduhB35-fx-94ClmPuuIYTZcRtK8PdPCtmM8tCLqKDtJXr5mbbGyB6Rn95N8GOaGqn_m_fo0JyRMka0W1xb-S4Po7XupKYDziCLMEFnza-Kfmf9qdZend11JLhSTO_vUbvLu2GizmZik2ABr1b1h0iEDF3P7lwpa4O8e-lgUEVXtTnkjZ5SlJZKu_Cdr2F0npIA-5NlFbOK77BARnk.jNnqhKCEwIMZ9IQO8KWrU_lqjsnlpcK4V5YfZjJghX8&dib_tag=se&keywords=brake%2Bcylinder%2Bhone&qid=1782406818&sprefix=brake%2Bcylinder%2Bhone%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-3&th=1), plenty of fluid (30 wt oil works for me) and sneak up on it, checking fit regularly. If you do fit grease fittings, drill them through the bushings and tap them before you hone, and then scrape the drilled hole inside as well as you can before honing. Otherwise the burrs on the inside of that hole will interfere with your honing.

Suggest that you consider replacing the special retainer ring that goes on the end of the shaft and contains the stop for the clutch pedal travel (that's the one that is pinned onto the end of the shaft). Those sometimes get bougered up and allow the clutch pedal to retract too far at rest.
