I need the wedge looking piece on a 4-speed linkage, HELP!!

I was driving my Blazer the other day when I shifted gears I heard a pop and no clutch!! The rod sheared the cotter pin off and the linkage hit the road at about 65 MPH so needless to say I lost the wedge shaped piece that fits on the throwout bearing arm and it is not repopped. Does anyone have one or a whole rod assembly? I'll pay for it as well as shipping, just let me know.

My email is

BADAZZ70RSSS@YAHOO.COM

Thanks, in advance!

Mike

I don't understand what part you need. The clutch fork? I have a spare one of those. If its on the linkage part though, I have no spares for linkage. Jeff.

On the fork there are two grooves, the piece I am looking for fits in those grooves. The clutch rod passes through a hole drilled in the wedge. and the wedge then matches the groove in the fork, and it acts as kind of a spacer. It is about an inch or an inch and a half long. If I had it I could take a pictur, but then I wouldn't need one! If you have a standard, look at it where the rod meets the clutch for and you'll see what I need. Any help would be appreciated. Hey by the way I got buried on that hatch, it went for like $350 or so. They are like $385 new, some people just don't get it. Thanks again.

Loks kinda like 2 axe heads stacked one on top of the other, with the rod going between them. Don't have any spares, but I have substituted nuts and washers for that little jewel. LMC has them in their catalog, item #30-0912, cost 3.45. They call it a pushrod nut. Page 128 in the fall catalog.

Ok, now I know what you mean. I don't have one either. Need to get one to get the Blazer on the road eventually. Ya, the hatch went crazy there at the end. Guess we were both lucky we didn't stick around. Later, Jeff.
