Question clutch fork repair??

Can a broken spring clip that holds the clutch fork to the ball stud be replaced? If so where to get part? Where to get it done? Etc.??

Ames sells new clutch forks. Probably cheaper to go that route than to pay someone to fix yours.

No, it's spring type metal and can not be welded and still be a spring, time for a new a fork.

Thanks for the info on the part @ $21.95.

This one is on Ebay for $27.69.

Good way to salvage an otherwise good original fork.
