Had the truck apart last fall for same issue! Did not need a clutch then either but has new now! When I took it apart the shaft itself would not move with nothing attached I lube and cleaned all well and re lubed on assembly. Worked great all winter. Sat a month and now wont move in gear clutch out half throttle! Ideas?
So my fix at moment is a return spring I took a trampoline spring and mounted it with about a 1/8 or so of preload Works but wow what a clutch peddle work out!
Those springs are pretty strong. Quite a bit of overload on pivots/linkages, gonna wear out quick. No way to lube/prevent from happening again? Could you possibly drill & tap for grease fittings? Fred
Can only see the shaft at trans on that side. But if I take starter off maybe see other side? But short of pulling the trans as well? I tried PB Blaster before, maybe WD40 next and just work the peddle a bunch?
