This is from a bellhousing off a B9 block with hydraulic clutch.

I do not know if that would make a difference to the pivot point.

I also do not know how big the truck was.

From pivot point to throwout bearing c/l is approx 3-1/4"

See how it compares to the dimensions we've posted and the number on it.


The number is TAAA-7515B. Dimensions are 5 3/4" x 3 3/8". I measured with set of dividers. The fork is from a '56 Mercury M100 witha 272, 11" clutch and a light duty 3 speed trans. Hope this helps

Same casting as mine but I measured with a rule and one eye.

So would car clutch forks have a different ratio and if so, why?

I agree with Horvaths. Probably for increased leverage. Some trucks had 10.5", 11" and 12" clutches (pressure plate springs were different). Also cars had the big helper spring on the pedal while trucks had the through the floor thigh-master style pedal.

Cool! So it looks like '54-'56 and '57-'64 are different.
