Howdy-
I've got the tell-tale endless clutch adjustment blues, so I'm pretty certain I'm going to have to replace the clutch release bearing shaft in my '61 Lark VIII wagon. I'm showing part numbers 536298 for the standard, and 1550523 for the HD version. I'm guessing either one would work, especially after having been welded up. I know that in theory I can knock the ones on my current shaft back in place and weld them, but the rub is that a.) I have to borrow a friend's garage to do the more involved repairs on the car and I don't want to tie her garage up more than a day, and b.) I don't think there will be an obvious reference point as to where the original position was to knock them back to.
If I can't find an NOS one (which I'd obviously weld before installing) I'd be glad to do a core exchange with someone who might already have one that is welded up.
Thanks!
