Hi Ray - thank you for your help - it made life easy. What lubricant goes into the fitting at the top of the universal joint housing? I know the grease fitting on the throwout bearing is for oil - not grease. What goes into the universal joint ? By the way - your "handle " sounds like you work on on Chevy radios. If you do - let me know if you need any tubes for repairing them - I used to be a radio TV repair man and have a few hundred tubes from the 50's-60's for TV's and radio still in their original boxes.

Yes, what you described for making the brake and clutch pedal stop is dead on. However, your metal is not thick enough! All of it should be 3/16" thick! By the way, why don't you see if you can find a pedal stop instead of making one? There are a lot of 1930 parts cars out there, and the stop shouldn't be that hard to find.

On the Universal Joint retainer, you put in 1/2 pint of 600W or whatever you are using for tranny fluid. No more than 1/2 pint or it will leak out of the speedometer cable fitting.

Thanks JunkYardDog - There is nothing in this part of the country for that part - unless someone knows where one is - Fabricating it is not a hard job with the proper tools - should not take more than 2-3 hours. If you or anyone else has a sketch or pix of it - please fax it to me at 1-800-887-5644. It would help me out. Thanks for all your help - could not have gotten this far without it!!!

Glad to help you out my friend!

Hey Moedip! Wanted to let you know that the pedal stop is also bent at an angle just before it butts up against the base of the pedal shafts. Coming off of the cross shaft adjustable support brace, the stop has one angle (going up to the base of the pedal shafts), and then it bends again at another angle just before the stop touches both pedals. Hope this helps you some.

JunkYardDog, Is there a chance that a 28 would have the same peddle stop? if they do I can take a picture and send it to Mo, Or if any of you can send me a pic I will work it around cyberspace and post it here, Mo NEEDS some help!

Part is correct for 30-31 only.

Ok , Thanks for letting me know Ray, Sorry I couldn't help. Mo , Just a curious question, How did the contrary thing work before you tore it down to fix the clutch? Did you look in the wash tank, I have found lots of missing things in mine, several after I went and bought a replacement! ( but that is me)

SUCCESS!! - Thank you all for your help!! I fabricated a pedal stop from 3 pieces of 3/16"x1" stock steel. 2 pieces 2 1/2" long and 1 piece 3" long. After careful measuring and welding and grinding I came up with a slick mechanism that can adjust the pedals from touching floorboards to 1" away from the floorboards. I set it so the pedals are 1/2" from the floorboards and the clutch has just over 1" free play everything works perfect! Thanks again for all the help!! New I go on to electrical stuff. Have started 2 new threads - see you there!!!
