Topic: tranny ???

[Richard]

I have a 1980 toy p/u and it has a 20R and a 4 speed , I bought a 5 speed that came out of a 1983 p/u I tried to install it in my p/u and it will not slide all the way in , the clutch fork gets pushed forward against the slave cylinder and wont let it slide all the way in , is there a different clutch fork I could try
thanks

Sounds like you need to drop back ten and punt. I don't know exact interchange information but.......

I would place the 2 transmissions side by side and compare carefully things like the pilot bearing size, spline count and length, the fork etc. Maybe you need the flywheel and clutch from the other engine. Or maybe the bellhousing and fork from the old trans. I'm also pretty sure a junkyard can tell you if they can interchange.

Or Marlin probably just knows what you need right off the top of his head.  :thumb:

Well ok my .02. try taking off the slave. The slave on toys I do belive move out kinda like a brake caliper. When the trans was out the piston could have moved out with the presser of the clutch fliud coming though the mastercly.  So take it off, nothing to lose by trying  :thumb: or you could just :.order:

Ok I tried  :.order: and that did not work so I  :sob: then went and   so far I am  

[brainlessfool]

well what happened when you tried? no slave in the way? so? tell us!  info in=useless info out!:hahaha: butt we'll try!

[Richard [OP]]

the slave is in the way , when I push the tranny in it pushes the fork forward against the slave , even without the slave in the way the fork is pushed to far forward to put the slave back in  

[brainlessfool]

ok, well is it so far in the way that bleeding it to push the slave piston back in wont work?ie if you can put the trans on with out the slave on can you then open the bleeder to push the piston back in? if not find a friend and :chug: oh and let us know! good luck

[brainlessfool]

sec.? is the trow out bearing on right? how bout the fork? is it on the post right?

[csdpower]

Do you have the right slave?  Im swapping in an L52-HD   in place of my 4 spd and one of the things that marlin said I would need to change is the slave. the new one wont have the adjustment screw.

[brainlessfool]

Well if thats what Marlin said.

[79coyotefrg]

yea check the slave cylinder :oops:  the 4 spd uses a different slave and throwout bearing both i think  

[Richard [OP]]

I'll check the slave , the through outs look the same
