I have no idea where you are located but I'd think that a depth mic, a
box of donuts and a visit to the local parts department would get you
the correct measurement.

I hear what you are saying about the current state of ag dealers. I
have to go 100 miles to get parts, used to be 15 miles. I went to
school with the service manager at a ford nh dealer, I can get
the info if you need it.. ED

Yes, I would REALLY appreciate it. Again, 1970 Ford 2000 3 cylinder dual
clutch with both PTO and forward. Depth from clutch mount ring to clutch
surface. The number will be about 1.700" more or less.

Another fella suggested just looking at a stock part. Ag dealers don't stock
ANYTHING, especially not parts for 40 year old tractors.

If you can't tell yet, I don't care at all for the local dealer. I've been
buying nearly all parts off eBay and internet sites.

Karl,

Spec is 1.710 on the 11" clutch and a factory 3 finger pressure plate.
