looks like a previously broken rod

you know if and when that end breaks off it makes a really loud noise as the rest of the linkage springs back and the throwout bearing slams the disc back against the flywheel. then you put your trans in 2, start in gear and go clutchless.hopefully your lucky and are not in a city.

do bear in mind that not all of the rods are the same length, 65-66 2wd are the same, other years and 4x4s are different
