Yup that I did snoopy - simple bl****y spring - band aid or not can add it to the list of can do's lol - will answer about difference tomorrow when driven more than a couple of kms Didn't really do myself as would have no idea with help from here So this week will be more phone calls, letters (more B/S) and fifty bales of hay to stack - nothing like something physical to get the brain in gear.

I think that new slave cyl is OK, but the correct one I have pictured in post #359 has the right pushrod and spring mount.

At least today ya've blardy well ACHIEVED something. No Broken Fingers. K Next thing is to get you cold calling and dealing with the manager of a reputable business.

And if any other businesses can show themselves independantly to be reputable Good on Em

Thank you jmma - kind of stuffed up with the grammar " blonde moment!" I will post updates as I can - If thread goes poof will start another :) thank you to all the posters on here who have shared their experiences and knowledge, tossed idea's around and had the patience to explain stuff to me and understand my 'explanations" of things

Why has the rusty old 2nd hand pushrod got two lock nuts!From post 359 you will see that correct pushrod would have the thread right through the fork so therefore the hole in the fork will look a bit as if it has a thread.
The fited pushrod looks way out of line.Whats the bet the piston end is wrong and its not sitting correctly.
You say Nev had your pushrod in his office - well no wonder the clown couldn't find it when he attempted to put your truck back together.
Don't want to scare you but what else did they loose and bodgy up either inside the box or when refitting the flywheel or pressure plate!
Someone else suggested a visit from the boys on bikes.Sounds a good idea to me.

Have no problem cold calling when know my facts snoopy - actually I'm a night mare on a phonemy favorite phrase "and that is my problem because" Its only a phone what can they do. I know there are lurkers on here - usually looking for mischief to fill the void of the lifeless life they created from the fictional bull they spout. Process from the past has taught me I need hard evidence in writing as well as the verbal word - therein lies the problem - not many will put their necks out these days - to much red tape and stuff

not many will put their necks out these days - to much red tape and stuf Some still will and i have known the manager of race brakes for a few years. However a cold call and EXACTLY how you find things is what this thread needs After all should this proceed to Court there can be no collusion Deal with the manager/owner Again a refererral is in this thread.

cowlover - they lost nuts and bolts - so anything is possible. I kid you not Neil stood in the office with a slave cylinder and push rod and claimed they were out of my truck and had failed (not how or why - he evaded those questions) just that it had failed and seized the bearing

I have faith snoopy - in those that walk the talk and take time to explain. I know a rat when I see one - but not always the type
