But it also increases the pressure to disengage the clutch a bit. The throwout bearings weren't intended to spin constantly when our trucks were made. But I think most modern throwout bearings actually do spin all the time.
Thanks whish I had a pic, cause even LMC Truck fails me in this regard, I believe their clutch pedal diagram shows more of a G Model than the C-K
