I also am confused to your actual problem,but your later posts down below seem to say your problem is that you can't depress the pedal to get the clutch to release.I don't know what the spring under the dash does-if it is a return spring it's not going to help;BUT-if it is an over center spring set up for the pedal,it would make the clutch easier to depress.That said,can the whole pedal assembly be removed to install the spring?What Bob said sounds like something to try first.4 inches seems like too far for the spring to have to stretch-is it the proper spring?Also-are the the 2 pins as close as they are supposed to be?Look at your donor truck and see how it works,and how it is hooked up.Have someone depress the pedal on the donor,while you observe everything.And robert major has some good points.If the clutch is for sure installed properly,have someone try to depress the the pedal while you observe everything for interference.Compare to the donor.If there is no interference anywhere,disconnect linkage pieces and try to release the clutch using a pipe wrench(or something suitable)to operate the linkage.Also-is every piece of linkage square,straight,and at right angles as it should be?No flexing of the firewall or other linkage attachment points? I have been as frustrated as you seem to be,and sometimes have had to take a break away from it.Maybe another set eyes can help-I have had to do that before.Don't cut up an otherwise good truck,until you are sure.Good luck,Mark

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
