[QUOTE="69ST, post: 68201, member: 5"] Unless someone has access to a CL70, SL70, or XL70 OEM shop manual, or a couple pairs of NOS shift forks to measure, don't count on finding these specs. They aren't to be found in 1970s vintage Haynes or Clymer's publications, either. FWIW, it's been my experience that once the heat-treated layer has worn, the contact points wear quickly. Oftentimes, you'll see where a gear has made contact with the base of the shift fork, when this has happened. Usually, the fingerprint-like machining pattern is visible, or the fork is worn far enough to warrant replacement. Sounds like your set is in good condition; what are the odds that they'd both be worn within 0.01mm [I]and[/I] used-up? [/QUOTE]
