    Overdrive vs winch

    Fitted an overdrive to my 2.25 petrol 2a 88 . Does not make a great deal of difference to top speed but it makes dual carriageway and even motorway driving a lot better experience.Also improves fuel economy especially if you do a lot of this kind of driving.

    Clutch linkage

    it does return fairly easy but as I said feels as if something is crunching which I think is the cluch end of the tube rather than something internal but I can't be sure

    Clutch linkage

    Thought about trying to split the tube length ways with a hammer and chisel but that would send a lot of shock force along the shaft and I'm not sure what that might damage plus I would probably still have the remnants of the clevis pin rusted into the shaft with no way of getting in there to...
