Ok, this may seem trivial, but I am getting parts together for my L43 to L45 tranny swap in my second truck. Got output/input seals, slave cylinder, input bearing, and release/throwout bearing. Now, I have the throwout on the shaft that goes on the input shaft, but am not 100% sure how this assembly goes together. Looked in a FSM I have, and from what I can tell, I should have pins to attach the bearing and hub to the shift fork. I have no clips. Am I making a mountain out of a mole hill, or should I hope and pray that the trans I am about to pull has them?

If anyone has pics of this assembly, it would speak volumes!

Maybe you need them to hold the release bearing to the fork.

Your transmission your pulling should have them.

This is one of those things that can put a halt to your plans at the worst time

seems to happen to me all the time

Let me know if this helps





The dealership has these clips

That's how I figured they went together. Real pics are always better than the ones in the FSM, Haynes or Chilton. I found clips for less than $2 a piece if the other trans doesn't have them, but like you said, it's one of those little things that will stop you in your tracks.

Thanks again for the pics.

Yep, no problem. I see no reason why the donor wouldn't have them, though.
