I'm very close to finishing a full rebuild on my 1983, but am running into trouble with shifting gears. The engine is a 2.3 l4, with a 4wd transmission. I think I'm missing some parts but I haven't been able to find any specs beyond a sort of housing that is supposed to mount on the bell housing and keep the slave in place. My dad took that part of the truck apart and found it jimmy rigged with tie wire, but did not take a picture. I am wondering what parts I need or if there is some kind of work around.


I am aware that the slave cylinder is missing parts, I have a replacement.

 

Welcome to the forum

The slave bracket was part number E4TZ7A544A

Will be hard to find, the F-series Fords and most Ford manual trans vehicles used same bracket around those years, wrecking yard may have one, but getting pretty old

 

Thank you
