Hey guys I have a 78 f150 4x4 with a 302 does anyone know where I can get the bracket that goes on the bell housing for the clutch linkage i think its called the zbar pivot bracket or if anyone has one

 

Are you sure it's a 302?

302 (6 valve cover bolts per side) not available with 4WD until 1980.

1977/79 F150/250 4WD's came with either a 300 I-6 or 351M or 400 V8 (8 valve cover bolts per side).

D7TZ-7A572-B .. Equalizer Bar Pivot - Inner (engine side) / Obsolete

1977 F100/150 302 from serial number Y80,001 / 1978/79 F100/150 302.

NOS PARTS SOURCE in Olathe KS has 1 = 913-220-5746.

MILLER OBSOLETE PARTS in Binghamton NY has 1 = 607-722-5371.

 

It had a 351 but I swapped it for a 302 fuel injected motor out of a 93

 

Driving down the street my clutch pushrod fell out, leaving me with no clutch. Luckily I found the pushrod (7521 in the diagram) but when I try to install it the pedal just goes to the floor. I think it has something to do with the coil spring 7534. Is that what the spring with rollers is for? What's its name?
I'm going to have to take a closer look under the dash when I get home tonight. I probably won't need one, but is it available?

Thanks,
R.

 

7534 is the clutch pedal lever assist spring, but there's more than one. What year is your truck, what engine?

D7TZ-7534-B .. Clutch Pedal Lever Assist Spring - 7 1/2 coils, 3 3/8" long / Obsolete

1977/79 F100/350 300/302 (F100/150)/351M; 1978/79 Bronco 351M; Misc 1981/83 F100/350 except 400 V8.

No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

 

I decided to gamble on a 1970 Mustang pedal assist spring looks almost exactly like the one that came in my truck. Length is 3 1/2" so I'm thinking it'll work. Less than $30 from Kentucky Mustang.

What's ironic about this whole thing is that my truck was sold to me as a 400 engine truck but it is really a 351M with a 400 crank and pistons in it. That means I got the clutch linkage for a 351M, if the truck had been a real 400 truck I could have bought real replacement NOS part!

Anyhow, thanks for the help!

R,
