I've been asked multiple times in the past few days about pivot points but we just ran out of pivot points a week or so ago. FT86 SpeedFactory has some in stock I believe and we will have them back in stock in another 2 weeks.

Thanks everyone!
Eric

For those curious about the design process of the clutch forks, we have added a blog post. Pretty informative and neat (to me at least haha).

I had an interesting occurrence with your clutch fork. A few months ago I had to get the TOB replaced because the one which came with my south bend clutch was faulty. The shop tried to pin it on the Velox fork, by saying, they didn't think it was "made for my car." No problems with the fork, just something funny that was told to me by the lead mechanic.

Another customer sent me a neat testimonial (below)! We are briefly out of stock but are working diligently to bring units back into stock. Should be early next week.



"Just wanted to thank you for making such awesome parts. Replaced my clutch over the weekend and put in the Velox clutch fork, pivot and bellhousing cover. Couldn't be happier, it shifts nice and smooth again. My OEM fork was pretty messed up. - Kelvin Ko"

Feel free to send us feedback anytime, the good, the bad, and the ugly. We're always open to listening. Sales@velox-motorsports.com

Thanks,
Eric

We've seen a few break: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...&postcount=114

We can't fully know how or why that one broke though. Most guys just want the pivot for the peace of mind. I don't recommend it like I do the clutch fork, but it's there for those that want it, and I'd say about 70% of the people *do* want it.

Thanks,
Eric

It has failed. And it is in the middle of the transmission, so if it fails you have to pay a boatload of money for someone to completely disassemble everything to replace that tiny piece. So if you are having someone do all that work might as well replace everything at the same time.

We have a few short videos from our machinist but nothing of the whole thing. I keep asking him to purchase a Go-Pro so I can make some videos of the stuff he produces for us...

Thanks,
Eric
