Lever clutch control CTL2731
 
Does anyone have a "Lever clutch control CTL 2731" they wish to sell. ( its the long lever on the outside of the side of the gearbox which operates the clutch. I have a truck one but its to short, i can alter it but it would be nice to have a genuine one.

leave the small one on, it's good for the thigh muscles :)

Ha ! Good one Rick.

i'm afraid the jokes on me, as i have a short clutch release lever and it's bloody heavy going on the old legs especially when you're trying to load it up on a trailer.

Have you got it sorted or do you want some measurements?

eddy8men 06-11-11 14:17

If you run a straight edge accross the end of the shaft, the centre of the eye is 73 mm out from that line. the eye is 10mm thick.
From the center line through the shaft the eye center is 179mm up.
The eye takes a 7/16" clevis pin (11mm)
My guess is that a center line through the arm is set back 30 degrees from the line through the fork pin.
Any thing lacking or unclear, just ask.

Rick i could pull mine out and send it down if you want to 3d scan it and get one or three cast up.... mine needs welded as the previous owner has nicked it with a grinder....any good ?

eddy8men 07-11-11 10:41

thanks guys that's pretty much the info i need, i plan to cut the old lever in half then grind a rebate into both ends and fit a tube in place and shape it to the lever cross section, with a bit of grinding and paint you'll never know it wasn't original :thup2:

thanks again

Some times thats the difference between a word and a thought.... Not in this case, of course.
