ACT 2600/Clutch Fork Question...?

[GsXtC21]

Hi, got a quick question for you guys.... I recently purchased an act 2600 w/ streetdisk and xact flywheel with oem tob... Now i've been reading that the oem clutch fork doesn't take very well to strong pressure plates and tends to brake/bend them..? So my question is should i just buy a new oem clutch fork and pivot ball and call it a day or is there an aftermarket "beefier" clutch fork thats recommended that i should use instead of the oem...?

Thanks for the help in advance ...

while you replacing clutch,just get the new pivot ball and a fork.OEM Forks are good,i don't know where you get,that forks are breaking off of the stronger clutch setup???!! never heard one of them breaking using act 2100-2600... WTF

I actually got that info off this site...

So i would be fine with a new oem clutch fork and pivot ball, just want to make sure before i proceed with the clutch install...

For the 2G, they revised/beefed it up. That's what I was told.

My OEM Revised fork from MachV is definitely heavier than the stock one in my 1G!

The only aftermarket one I know of is the Taboo billet one that was made back in the day. You'd be lucky to see one listed for sale. I've seen 2 or so listed in the past few years.

I say all new OEM parts and you'll be fine.

^^^ Yep.

I can't see an OEM clutch fork causing a problem unless something is wrong with the other clutch components (improper flywheel step height, binding TOB, bent PP fingers, broken spring in the clutch disk, etc).

Now the shift rails in the tranny itself...that's a different story.

Curious, does the binding of the tob and bent pp be related to clutch pedal not coming back up after excessive bleeding and new master and slave.
