Re: 1989 F150 trouble shifting Sign In

I am having the same problem with my 89 f-150 4 speed manual. I have replaced the slave and master clutch cylinder and bled the hell out of the line. The pedal now comes back up but i still cannot put it into gear and when I try i can hear a "thunk" and the truck creeps forward but still wont seat. I have been told it may be the pilot bearing or the shifting fork. I am checking the fork now but i dont think that is it. any suggestions?

Sounds like you simply still have air in the system. If it shifts OK when the engine is not running, then it's either a broken pressure plate or it still has air in the system. If it has excessive free play in the top of the pedal, then it's a bleeding problem.

That's OK. I also moved your post to create a question of your own. We don't address multiple vehicles within one question.
