NV4500 & Hydraulic Clutch

Jun 22, 2004 6 Replies

When the clutch push rod rushes on the fork, how is it supposed to connect TO the fork. Mine has two holes in it and the push rod goes right through. Aren't I supposed to have some kind of "shoe" or dimpled dish-like thing in the fork for the rod to push on?


The problem is between #23 and #12

The shaft coming out of the slave cylinder is too small for the holes in the fork.

The NV4500 came from Nova Scotia, I had it shipped to Texas, so yes I bought the Jeep in pieces. The slave came from Advanced adapters so did the bell housing.

Hmm.... Is the fork a pusher or a puller? The one I saw that was a puller had a larger hole for a threaded rod to go through. The tranny was a BW T-5 from a Mustang though...

Is yours held down by a spring with the big ball bearing pivot out near the bell housing hole?

I turned the stock CJ linkage into a puller by flipping the bar on the bell crank to the top. Worked.
