Where does this spring go? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

1972 K10 4 speed.

I have this spring with one end missing. Does this go somewhere on this truck?

Looks like a throttle return spring....

I does don't it? Sorry I should have laid something beside it to give some perspective. It is much bigger than a throttle spring. I guess I will take another picture tomorrow.

Thanks

Broken as it is, it looks like a clutch fork return spring

Where was it found? Any chance it came from something other then the 72 K10?

Hard to tell size by that pic. If it's too big for return spring then most likely clutch spring...

I think clutch fork is probably the answer. It was with that pile of parts. Here is a picture with the little throttle return spring for relativity.
