Hi guys,

I am having a bit of trouble figuring out where the clutch return spring would go in the clutch linkage. I have attached a photo of the two areas I think it may hook up to on the linkage, but I am unsure where it would attach to on the car.

Thanks in advance!

Hope you can make sense of these.

Joe,

Thanks for The pictures - It looks like I am missing a spring as both areas I highlighted in my initial pic look like they have springs on them in your car.

I hate to be a bother but can you confirm where they hook up on the other side - Do they just hook into a hole in the frame, or is there a bracket I am missing?

Forgive my "help." My car is at my son't at the moment and I can't get under there for a decent photo. Here is one more, but it looks like I'm taking it apart. But a spring wire is hooked to something.

You might hook one side and then look for a hole in the frame for the other end.

Have you checked the training manuals for shift linkage, etc?

A few pic's of Noels '41 160's(thinking s/be same as 180) linkages, back in 2012 when it was being put back together.
