www.nospartsltd.com NOS Parts Ltd is an independent parts warehouse that specializes in providing Obsolete New Old Stock Ford parts for Ford and Lincoln - Mercury cars and trucks.

Has 4 in stock. Perhaps you should do some measurements of the one you have and contact them to see if they can compare your measurements to the parts they have.

 

Great thanx, will do.

 

do you know if the 01T-7507A has three mounting holes or just two?

 

Yes, it should have 3 5/16" bolts, the F1 part has 2 3/8" bolts

 

Measured the ball on mine .835 almost 7/8".

Hope that helps..

 

well bad news, I called them today and Lynn there said they looked high and low and could not find them anywhere. Any ideas?

 

do you know how far out it extends? From the attachment point toward the clutch. I ask because mine seems 1/4" or more short... I'll measure mine tonight.

 

I removed the Clutch Equalizer ball piece and will clean it up tonight to see if there are any markings on it. It appears to be the correct 3 hole part. But the diameter on the ball is more like 3/4". So either the piece that goes on the ball socket (with sleeves and spring) is slightly short in length, or the equalizer ball is incorrect. Someone might have used a combination of F1 parts...

 

I cleaned the grease off the equalizer ball and I was able to make out 01T-7.. So it appears correct. I have a digital caliper coming tomorrow so I'll measure it, but it seems like 3/4". And there is a rubber gasket on the ball behind it.

 

here's a pic of it, I can't make out the full part #.

 

There is indeed a rubber gasket/O ring behind it. The 3 hole mount looks correct.

 

OK, well it looks like that is the correct part, even if it is worn, with the spring and shims it should not have that much of a gap. The arm from there to the clutch is the same part for the F1 thru F6, so that should not be the problem, so perhaps it's time to step back and look at the overall picture.

1. Are the holes in the frame for this bracket elongated at all?

2. Is there another set of holes there, could the bracket have been moved?

3. Is the transmission crossmember correct and properly mounted?

4. Are the motor mounts correct (original) and properly located? (Engine/transmission offset?)

5. Is the frame bent anywhere?

 

Just to be clear, you did have the pin in this hole when it was falling apart?

 

I replaced the equalizer ball sleeves, spring, etc. and took some video of the slop. If I press on the clutch it eventually pulls off the equalizer socket.
What do other set-up look like? Thanx.

 

Seems like, as has been previously suggested, your engine/trans is not centered in the frame. Have you measured from the side rails to the center of driveline yet?
