The real problem is the z bar bearing retainer is not in the center groove of the bearing as it should

Ask sogtx about that one....

ok back to my cave



I was able to double check the retainer and it’s right where it should be, in the center of the bearing.

If my frame side ball stud is to long, a shorter one would would allow zbar to move closer to frame which is the direction it needs to go. This is not the case according to Brewers.

Also, if holes for retainer in zbar were drilled in a different location towards the bell housing, this would possibly allow you to slide zbar over toward frame then lock it in.

I’ve purchased according to the parts book, the correct part and awaiting arrival. Will post photo when installed.
