If that is worn along with the clutch pedal bushings and also the Z-bar bushings,
That would add up to a lot off slack in the system.

You may have already checked these things.
Just trying to help.

Thanks ,, that is an idea to check on.. that is if it can be adjusted to not make my clutch hit all the way to the floor board so to keep the gears from grinding ,, then, that would help me some and maybe a lot..

I saw your other thread about the clutch bothering you. A hydraulic conversion wouldn't be cheap but might fix your problems.
