1980 traveler, turbo diesel/t-19/d300.
I rebuilt the transfer case, and in the process I lowered the transmission by a few inches several times. On one of those cycles I heard a loud "pop" noise, and discovered that I failed to disconnect the clutch linkage and it didn't like flexing that much.
As the attached picture shows, I blew the little plastic socket that seated the ball bolted to the transmission. (I hope that makes sense, I don't know the right names for the parts). Everything looks to be pretty easy to get to. My question is, what do I call the part I need to replace, and where do I get one? (does IH Parts America sell them?) I assume there's another socket at the other end of the tube as well, and I'm planning on replacing both at the same time.
Is there anything specific I should check once I put the linkage back together, other than that everything looks right and the clutch engages/disengages correctly?
