Hi List, I'm in the process of getting my tranny ready to install. I pulled the pin out of the fork and guess what...it was broken off! No wonder the shifting was so poor. My question is...I have ano

The fork pins are available individually from TRF (I think that's where I got them). Only $1 or so each. I replaced mine two years ago and kept the original fork. Rob Hi List, I'm in the process of

Joe--There is a taper in the clutch shaft bore to match the taper of the fork pin. It's difficult to eyeball the bore in this shaft to know how much it has ovaled. I have found that one can get a goo

How much play should exist in the clutch shaft? There is an almost imperceptable "click" and a tiny unmeasurable amount of play in the fork when the pin is inserted and the fork is moved back and fo

I'd recommend that you buy a new shaft and pin and reinforce it with another bolt & nut according to details in the Buckeye web site ( I took a photo of mine when I did it last year; let me know if

Hello folks, It has been suggested to me by a local TR owner that a permanent fix is to weld the fork to the bearing. Seems like a bad idea to me but has anyone had experience with this good or bad?

I've considered welding the fork to the shaft. I too have heard that this is not such a great thing to do. I can't imagine why. Obviously it would be permanent, and the shaft would have to be removed

Sounds like you've reasoned through it to me. What a consenting adult and thier lbc does is thier business. Go for it. I doubt the judges will ever catch it. _________________________________________

Joe--Welding the shaft and fork together certainly takes care of the sheared pin syndrome, doesn't it?! A less drastic solution might be double pinning the fork to the shaft. At least this way both t

Nothing wrong with it, but nothing right either. Have you ever tried cutting one with a hack saw? Even with a cutoff wheel this is a little difficult. A torch would do better. What if you need to rep

Others have mentioned that you can drill another hole in the shaft at a 90 degree angle to the fork pin and run a bolt through there. This truly works, even in racing conditions. Why bodge up the wor

Welding is overkill and unnecessary; add the 1/4" bolt and pre-drill a small 1/8" hole opposite the taper pin. You'll never need this though since the additional bolt will prevent it ever breaking ag
