Re: Clutch pedal adjustment?
21,OK. First is "feel", it's subjective. Excessive depends on the driver. It should operate smoothly without binding, sticking or chattering. Know this though, the stiffer it is the more linkage wears. The return spring you see is only there to keep the linkage from pushing against the pressure plate and to keep a preload on the linkage. Spring should attach to linkage at the release fork and go to the frame. You can use a weaker spring if you wish. Free travel should be 1 to 2" at the pedal from it's rest position to when it first starts to release clutch. The longer the rod the higher the pedal will be and the smaller the free travel. Let us know how you do, jim

Little stuff left to do is mount winch, wet sand & buff out and build belly pan\running boards. Body work takes lots and LOTS of beer!!!! God, Guts and Guns made America and God, Guts and Guns will preserve it! The worst thing you could do is get into my sights, but that don't matter, you'll never know it, cause you'll never hear the shot  Jim or Paladin whichever you choose.
