Clutch problems
Hi everyone, I know it's been awhile since I have posted anything. Work has been crazy lately. But we have a new building to work out of and the boss said I can tow the truck over Friday so he can help me finish wiring it. My main problem right now is all the other problems it has. I know I have to go through all the brakes and put in a new emergency brake cable. I'm still trying to figure out if I can use both the battery, temp and oil guages I got in the gauge cluster from the dump truck and have my warning lights work like in later model trucks. Have to patch a few holes until I can get a replacement bed. Hopefully I can find a nos bed to change out with. And I'm still looking for fenders to trade the 67 fenders I have. But the problem that worries me the most is the clutch. When the po rebuilt the truck the first time I'm guessing he used it as a shop truck and threw it together with whatever leftover parts he could find. So I have a 250 (that I'm currently collecting parts to rebuild it over the winter) that has an insanely stiff clutch. I don't know if he used a clutch out of a dump truck or something but I almost need to use both my feet to change gears in the thing. I don't know what to do to lighten it up and leave the heavy duty clutch in it either. Can anyone help me out.
Thanks, Stephen Last edited by Stephen717; 09-11-2018 at 10:51 PM. |
