Re: Clutch time

I can't find a way to post pictures for part identification but I have a UFO.

Okay, I'm changing out the clutch master cylinder and I find this thing tucked away up in the insulation in the firewall area inside the cab. It appears to be a brace for the firewall/master cylinder connection since it fits on the uninstalled master very nicely. Problem is, it won't even come close to fitting in actual usage because the saddle or whatever you call the thingy for the steering column penetration is all in the way. Bolts on the master aren't long enough to even reach the holes in this thing.

Is there normally a kinda strange looking steel brace inside the firewall? It maybe looks like a muffler clamp a dude on LSD might fabricate.
