I removed my transmission and throw out bearing/fork assembly from my 1937 Dodge business coupe D5 with 3 speed transmission. My question is in addition to the 2 circular springs used to hold the throw out bearing carrier to the fork assembly there was a small mangled spring in there also. Please refer to 2 photographs. There is a factory plate that has 2 tabs with holes in them bolted to the front of the transmission which then would have these tabs 180 degrees apart on either side of the input shaft flange. I think the small mangled spring originally had one end in there but I don't see where the other end was connected to. Was this a homemade solution to something or was it a factory item to return the throw out bearing when clutch was released? I don't see where the other end of the spring would go. I wouldn't think it would have been attached to the circular springs. Do I have a mismatch of parts or what? Should there be 2 springs? Thanks for your help in solving this puzzle.

Hey there....just got done replacing clutch disc and pressure plate after driving my 1940 Plymouth pickup for about 40 years....flywheel was not turned, didn’t need it....parts were built by a reputable nationally known shop. Now that everything is back together, T/O bearing won’t reach the pressure plate fingers until pedal is almost to the floor, even with the adjustment screws on the ears all the way out/in on their respective sides. It is an 11” clutch, and was wondering if there was a different style throwout bearing sleeve for the 11” setup that I am not aware of??. I need for the bearing to be another inch or so closer to the clutch in order to operate, and was wondering if there was a sleeve that didn’t have such a deep recess to the flat “lands” that the fork levers ride on when they push the bearing into the clutch. It is strange, because nothing has changed in the setup since the parts were sent off. I am in Missouri, rebuilder is in Massachusetts, and I could use some input before I start fabricating a solution. Thank you in advance....
