Mystery hanging broken springs


wagoneer

Recommended Posts

Hello,

  I have my 48 Chrysler Windsor on the lift, and I am noticing a couple of broken return springs. One near the emergency brake band (1) and the other farther up near the linkage. Could anybody give me an idea and maybe a pointer to a diagram/picture of what these prints are supposed to be connected to and  name so I can replace them.

thanks,

Nikola

The front spring is the clutch fork return spring....2nd picture...

the rear hanging spring  in your picture is the E -brake pull back spring which on a 4 door or coupe also connects to a 10" extension link rod (approx.) hooked into a small hole in the floor brace.

1st picture shown is the E-Brake return spring with out the extension link...1948 Chrysler convertible X frame shown. Does not use the extension link.

Found this great parts explosion on  AMS NOS

I found the hand brake return spring at mopar mall. https://www.moparmall.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=871-129&CartID=1

 

I think the front one is actually the 'clutch pedal return spring'. The clutch fork return spring is a small item at the end according to the parts explosion attached.

Found at Andy's -   https://www.oldmoparts.com/parts-clutch.aspx

 

Is there a picture of this on a 4-door Windsor? I would like to see what the spring attaches to on the other side, or which part it is specifically.

Here is another angle — I think I am missing two Springs! 
 

the clutch pedal return and the clutch fork Return spring . I have the long one in the background with space on both ends but I’m missing the pedal return and the short one in your foreground.
