Hey folks - new member who has successfully survived quite awhile on the awesome "history" housed in the forums. Rebuilding an 82 basket case which has gone well so far, heh. Decided to button up my clutch knowledge going through the tech post. Then pulled out the pushrods....voila
The ball mid-engine is pretty much destroyed. Rod pic isn't great but the short has light pitting on the end, not ground out as I'd expect fro mm the ball dmg. Anyone seen this before? Perhaps want to take a stab at cause? I will be ordering the long rod from Mike's and new balls as the PO of said basket case already lost the worm and clutch side balls. Just looking for thoughts.
