This spring type clutch release fork is an important manual transmission component for 1965-1968 Mustang owners running a 289, 302, or 351W V8. The release fork holds the clutch release bearing and transfers pedal movement through the clutch linkage, helping engage and disengage the clutch properly during shifting.
A worn, bent, rusted, or missing clutch release fork can cause poor clutch feel, incomplete release, difficult shifting, or inconsistent pedal operation. Built from durable steel with a black painted finish, this replacement is a strong choice when servicing the clutch system, replacing the release bearing, rebuilding the bellhousing area, correcting manual transmission operation, or completing a small block Mustang restoration.
