20 beers, 2 days & I still dont know how to put my cluster back together
 

I rebuilt my pedal cluster on my 71 911 and Im going absolutley nuts trying to figure out the clutch spring and the clutch pedal. All the pics I look at shows the spring tight on the left side and the pedal against the new brass bushing on the right side....just like I remember it...My situation is like the clutch piece that goes throught the entire deal grew about 1/2 inch!!! Maybe Im losing it..again but any help or ideas would be great. Im gonna borrow a digital camera and repost as soon as i can. Thanks in advance!!!!! Bruce

I will speculate you have left out the spacer bushing labeled as item 41 in the above figure. Jim

Maybe the problem is the "20 beers". ;)

Maybe you just need more beer? http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/wat6.gif

Well I did drink more beer tonight reading and looking....The Item 41 that Jim mentioned may have hit the nail on the head!! I thunk I kept all the parts together but obviously not. Thanks so much for the excellent pic/layout and advice!!!!!. I'll order one tomorrow after a few more cold ones tonight. OMG I love you guys!!

Item #41 might be with the returnable cans! LOL.

Please note the "excellent pic/layout" is courtesy of our host; it comes from the parts diagrams included on this site. Jim

Bruce,
