Hi,
Last week, I stop at a traffic light and can't engage a gear, I return to my home in first gear and in the garage the filler and piston from the clutch slave cylinder fall down.The engine clutch gearbox have been rebuilt 6000 miles ago but I think It is the diagram spring or the clutch operating fork, but I have to remove the gearbox to see!!!If you have an info and what is the time to remove a gearbox .Thanks

The 2500 triumph engine is noted for a marginal clutch. failure is often coomonly as a result of the clutch fork mechanism. The bolt securing the fork to theshaft generally is the culprit. Talk to any triumph specialist and they will be able to advise regarding best methods of repair / modification.

I used to swear by TR Bitz in Warrington during the days gone when I had a TR6.

Hi,
Yes I think it is the fork because I haven't notice an unusual noise from the clutch and the operating shaft assembly is going too far off.
I try to remove the gearbox to see.Thanks and sorry with my language.

It is a well known achilles heel on the triumph. Cambridge Motorsport do a nice line in Hydraulic release bearings if you want to spend some money.
