Re: Congratulations to me

In my experiences, the 2g clutch forks can wear rather rapidly if anything is out of adjustment, or a heavy duty pressure plate can end is life rather quickly. Its hard to visually spot if its bent, unless you know what you are looking for, or have a new one for comparison. They tend to bend where the to bearing mounts first, followed by where the cltuch rod pushes on, eventually they become straight. It will be interesting to see where yours broke off at, my guess is where the to bearing mounts, I bed you have a 'mounted' fork and a to bearing on the shaft with clutch fork pieces stuck to it.
Good luck on the tranny removal, I know you've done it a few times, so it shouldn't be that bad, and keep us posted.

Re: Congratulations to me

Slave did what Peter described. It will need to be replaced or rebuilt.

Fork broke just inside the tranny bellhousing. Maybe it bottomed out on the tranny and I snapped the bitch off?

I'll have the tranny dropped sometime tonight, I took my time yesterday yanking shit out of the car I didn't need anymore.
