    WTB: 1971 911 adjustable T/O bearing fork.

    Must be the 'adjustable' fork for the 901 transaxle. I need two of them.

    But after that moment you are on your own and nobody owes you a damn thing.

    Mark-
    I have one, but it is not "adjustable." I didn't know there was such a thing. What do you adjust?

    Scott, in 1971 Porsche changed the one piece fork like you have to, for lack of a better term a 'hinged' fork that could be adjusted via bolt on the fork. This allowed for easier adjustment with the 70/71 pull type clutch. It also eased the pain of transaxle removal from the engine if the clutch was worn and replacement needed.

    Yes Bill I did. It was the non adjustable one though, 1970. They are out there I just have to find one. Your's is in 99.9% condition and a LOT better than the one I'm running now and the one I have as a spare. If I can't locate an adjustable pretty quick your's is going in my race car and I will keep searching for my resto street ride which won't see the road for 6 months.
