There are different lengths of connecting rods between the cross shaft pivot and pedal. If some extra length would solve it you can do like I did....

Don't bother with the stuff at the top, the pertinent stuff for you is halfway down the page.

HTH

 

Did you check the length of the new throw-out bearing against the old one? Is the cross tube in the same position as before? Not swapped end for end?

 

yes i did check the new throw out bearing with the old one/the cross shaft i marked long end 3-1/8th as the cable side pointing up and the short side 2-3/4 inch as the rod side pointing down/ i am using the old clutch fork/with the trans in the jeep the bearing sits about an inch away from the pressure plate fingers before i start to do the adj/////////thanks

 

Gotta be the pressure plate then. Did you switch from a Borg and Beck to a diaphram or visa versa?

 

hello ok posinoto you got it the cross shaft was in backwords thank you ///////art
