I know it's unlikely that anyone has new one, but if anyone has a good used one (ie; round holes instead of oval for the release bearing!), can they let me know?

Many thanks,

Simon
ps: I'd need this posted to England - just in case that puts anyone off!

Sorry but most weld up and grind to finish badly worn forks.

Simon,
Â Â Â What year is the Saab, and which transmission is it? Is the fork the same for 3 spds and 4 spds? I imagine iw would be.

Why don't you weld the worn hole in and then run a round file through it
to make it round again?
That is what I do.

Just be sure the top hole and the bottom slot place the TOB perfectly
plumb to the PP. I think they pretty much wear together. And you might
also re-bore the release arm for the slave if it's ovalled.

Seriously. Weld it up and reshape / restore the holes. Although! Gas weld it. That normalises the welded area and gets rid of any fractures that may result from mig or tig or tedious arc welding. Use die grinder with a file in any shape you feel comfortable with. Weld right up....grind right to where ya want it.

Btw. 4Spd & 3spd used same T.O. bearing. So without measuring I'm leaning towards...same fork.
