Would a large diameter cotter pin work? or at least until I can get the correct clevis pin? Also, do you often see both pins shearing at the same time?

i just got out from under mine and i can't see that inboard pin. how would you go about accessing it? there's another of us out there, jeff, aka badvibes, that can move his slave linkage by hand having the sleeve rotate with the linkage. this seems to indicate that the inboard pin is gone.Originally Posted by daveb

To get up to speed. I too was driving around, pull up to a light, maybe "felt" something give. Try to pull away from the light and no clutch. Had to restart the truck in gear and was able to drive home by shifting without the clutch. Tranny seems to shift fine with the truck not running. Replaced the clutch slave and a "weeping" flex line to the slave. Still no workee. Have @ 1/2" of travel in the lever arm I can move with my fingers. The 1st pin I can feel and seems to be holding the sleeve, it moves with the lever arm as I move it with my fingers. It looks to me like to access the 2nd pin which I suspect is broken/missing I would have to pull the tranny. Here's a bad diagram trying to show what I'm talking about.Originally Posted by scott

It's a tight fit, but you don't have to pull the transmission. You just have to work around the boot that goes into the bell housing.
With the cotter pin out of the clevis, I have pulled out the second pin with needle nose pliers.

dude! I've got a broken Rover and you have to do it like that? Thought a guy would get a little sympathy around here. Guess I better go pull the floorboards out.Originally Posted by daveb
