CLUTCH LINKAGE KIT,55 CHEVY

Brand New Southwest Speed Factory Replacement Clutch Linkage Kit that includes a Factory Reproduction Clutch Bell Housing Bracket, Clutch Cross Shaft or also known as an "Z" Bar, Cross Shaft Frame Bracket, Adjusting Clutch Fork Push Rod, Anti-Rattle Spring, Two Cross Shaft Felt Washers, Clutch Pedal Push Rod Bolt and Bushing Kit, and Clutch Pedal Push Rod > This Clutch Linkage Kit fits all 1955 Chevy Passenger Cars with Manual Transmissions (SWS Part # 650-4632)

This Southwest Speed clutch pedal linkage kit is a reproduction of the original clutch linkage used on 1955 Chevy Passenger Cars with manual transmissions > The parts in this clutch linkage kit do not have the GM casting numbers but will look, fit, and perform just like original > If you are doing a restoration of a 1955 Classic Chevy or just want the correct clutch linkage to finish that rod project, this linkage kit is the perfect part!

NOTE: The 1955 265 V-8 engine did not have a block mounted canister or spin on oil filter. Later in that year an oil filter was installed as an option remotely on the top of the engine. If you are installing a later model V-8 engine in your 1955 Chevy, purchase the 1956 Chevy Linkage Kit and it will clear the spin-on oil filter.

NOTE: The Cross Shaft Pivot Studs will not work with the later model Chevy bell housing bracket or frame bracket because the cross shaft cross shaft pivot studs are 5/8" O.D. on the 1955 Chevy, and 3/4" O.D. on the 1956-1957 Chevy
