Got the M41 into the 69 144 today. Wasn't to bad. I still have the driveshaft to put back on and some odds and ends to wrap up.

Where does the clutch return spring attach opposite the clutch fork? There is a small bracket atached to the tranny mount but it sticks out towards the passenger side. My B35 had it as well but wasn't sure why its there.

Hello,

Volvo used a different exhaust support bracket for automatic and manual cars for at least 2 reasons.

The bracket for a manual shift car, extends past the transmount bracket and has a hole for the clutch throw out return spring.

We usually remove these both styles of bracket as they are often broken near the exhaust pipe and causes a rattle.

For the manual shift cars without a bracket, we just drill a small hole in the transmission crossmember for the return spring.
