Thanks, video is perfect information. I have the fat clutch rod but have not installed it yet. I do have a question/issue. HD under warranty installed deflector part# 3630028, listed in tech article TA0022, did not fix problem. Greg emailed me saying fat clutch rod would not fit with this part. Can someone tell me what I need to do to install the fat rod ?? Seeking information on what part number do I replace 3630028 and where is it located. Thanks...

If you take this off the clutch plates and pressure plate needs to be realigned or you will have no clutch. Please follow the instructions provided during the install not after!! There is also a install video and here is the link.. INSTALL VIDEO HERE

Are you selling this pushrod?

You would need to remove the button deflector to allow the fat rod to be inserted from the derby side and sliding into the mainshaft. As it is now, your button will stop the fat rod from sliding through. I had the button deflector but my transfer rate doubled in half the miles. So I removed it. You’ll have to drop the heat shield, and the drop the head pipe slightly to take the chrome cover off the cable side and remove the inner cover to access the deflector. If you do this, consider the impact with your dealer and the warranty “repair”, lol. If you take it out, this is the best time to remove your OE rod and slide in the fat rod from the tranny side. Or have your dealer do it if you can convince them to remove the deflector if your transfer rate is worse. You should be able to reuse the gasket if you don’t damage it, otherwise you may need to buy another one to have on hand.
