FAW J6P Bracket: Deconstructing 10 Critical Parts for Flawless Clutch Support

Welcome to this critical deconstruction of the FAW J6P Bracket and clutch fork assembly. This system is a core component for the FAW Jiefang CA3250P66K2L1T1E 6×4 dump truck’s manual transmission. This guide is for technicians, analyzing the 10 components that create the complete FAW J6P Bracket and lever system, which is essential for clutch actuation.

The FAW J6P Bracket is the “fulcrum” of the entire clutch control mechanism. Its logic is to provide a rock-solid, stationary anchor point for the release fork’s pivot shaft. This component must absorb 100% of the force from the clutch booster, allowing the fork to multiply that force and disengage the heavy-duty clutch.

Core 1: The “Structural Anchor” Logic (The FAW J6P Bracket)

This group represents the single most important “stationary” component in the assembly. The FAW J6P Bracket is the foundation upon which the entire lever system is built.

1. Component: ‘Release fork bracket’ (1602421A70A)
This (Comp 10) is the FAW J6P Bracket itself. This is a heavy-duty, high-strength component, likely cast from iron or steel. It is designed with a thick mounting flange and a precisely-bored “tunnel” for the pivot shaft.

The Rigidity Logic is its core purpose. The FAW J6P Bracket is bolted directly to a machined boss on the gearbox or clutch housing. It must be completely rigid and inflexible. It acts as the “fulcrum” for the ‘Release fork’ (Comp 2).

Any flex in this FAW J6P Bracket would be disastrous. It would mean that when the clutch booster applies force, the bracket would bend *before* the clutch disengages. This would waste energy, result in a “spongy” pedal, and cause incomplete clutch disengagement, leading to severe gear grind and transmission damage.

2. The “Mounting” Group (Comp 4, 5)
This group includes: ‘Hexagon flange bolt (for FAW gearbox)’ (Comp 4) and ‘Hexagon flange bolt’ (Comp 5). These are the two high-tensile bolts that secure the FAW J6P Bracket (Comp 10) to the transmission housing.

The Flange Bolt Logic is a vibration-resistant design. The “flange” is a built-in, non-spinning washer. This wide face distributes the clamping load and, more importantly, provides a much larger “friction face” that resists vibrational loosening far better than a standard bolt. This is essential for a component like the FAW J6P Bracket, which is subject to constant, high-frequency engine vibration.

Core 2: The “Lever & Pivot” Logic (The Fork Assembly)

This group represents the “moving parts” that mount *onto* the FAW J6P Bracket. This is the lever system that does the actual “work” of actuating the clutch.

1. Component: ‘Release fork – clutch’ (1602416A70A)
This (Comp 2) is the “Clutch Release Fork.” This is the large lever arm. Its logic is to pivot on the shaft (Comp 3) that is held by the FAW J6P Bracket (Comp 10).

The Force Multiplication Logic is its function. It is a Class 1 Lever. The clutch booster pushes on the “short end” of the fork (at the ‘Spherical bearing’, Comp 9). This causes the “long end” (the tines) to move a greater distance in the opposite direction, pulling the release bearing and disengaging the clutch. This entire action is anchored by the FAW J6P Bracket.

2. Component: ‘Release fork shaft’ (1602422A70A)
This (Comp 3) is the “axle” or “pivot pin.” This hardened steel shaft passes *through* the bore of the FAW J6P Bracket (Comp 10) and also through the pivot hole on the ‘Release fork’ (Comp 2).

The Pivot Logic is its function. It provides a smooth, low-friction surface for the fork to pivot on. It is held in place by ‘Spring circlips’ (Comp 1) and sealed by ‘Sealing gaskets’ (Comp 7). The FAW J6P Bracket is what gives this shaft its rigid, stationary position.

Core 3: The “Articulation & Input” Logic (The Bearing)

This component is the crucial “joint” that connects the linear “push” of the clutch booster to the pivoting “arc” of the release fork. It is a key part of the FAW J6P Bracket‘s lever system.

1. Component: ‘Radial spherical plain bearing’ (GE25ES)
This (Comp 9) is the “input” bearing. This is not a roller or ball bearing; it is a “spherical” bearing, which is essentially a precision-machined “ball” (inner ring) inside a “socket” (outer ring).

The Articulation Logic is its critical function. This bearing (Comp 9) is pressed into the “input” eyelet of the ‘Release fork’ (Comp 2). The pin from the clutch booster’s push-rod then passes through the inner “ball” of this bearing.

This design allows the clutch booster to push in a straight line, while the release fork (anchored by the FAW J6P Bracket) swings in a slight arc. This “spherical” bearing allows for this misalignment, preventing the linkage from binding, reducing wear, and ensuring a smooth, low-effort pedal feel for the driver.

It is held in place inside the fork’s eyelet by a ‘Spring circlip for hole’ (Comp 8), making it a replaceable service item for the FAW J6P Bracket assembly.

Core 4: The “Sealing & Positioning” Logic (Hardware)

This final group contains all the supporting hardware that completes the FAW J6P Bracket assembly, sealing it from the elements and precisely positioning the components.

1. The “Sealing” Group (Comp 7)
This group includes: ‘Sealing gasket’ (Comp 7, Qty 2).

The Sealing Logic is the job of these two ‘Sealing gaskets’. These are placed on the ends of the ‘Release fork shaft’ (Comp 3) where it passes through the ‘Release fork bracket’ (Comp 10) and the clutch housing.

They are critical “static seals” that prevent high-temperature gear oil from leaking *out* of the gearbox, and, just as importantly, prevent water, road salt, and dirt from getting *in* and seizing the pivot shaft. This ensures the FAW J6P Bracket and fork pivot smoothly for the life of the clutch.

2. The “Positioning” Group (Comp 1, 6, 8)
This group includes: ‘Spring circlip for shaft’ (Comp 1, Qty 2), ‘Spacer’ (Comp 6, Qty 2), and ‘Spring circlip for hole’ (Comp 8, Qty 2).

The Locking Logic is the function of the “circlips” (snap rings). The ‘Shaft circlips’ (Comp 1) snap into grooves on the ‘Shaft’ (Comp 3) to prevent it from sliding out of the FAW J6P Bracket. The ‘Hole circlips’ (Comp 8) snap into grooves in the fork’s eyelet to lock the ‘Spherical bearing’ (Comp 9) in place.

The Positioning Logic is the job of the ‘Spacers’ (Comp 6). These spacers are used to precisely position the ‘Release fork’ (Comp 2) on its shaft (Comp 3), controlling any “axial” (side-to-side) movement. This ensures the fork’s tines remain perfectly centered on the release bearing, which is critical for the FAW J6P Bracket system.
