Tom---Since one end of the rod joins the clevis pin, and the other end has a
ball socket, there should be no alignment issues with either orientation during
assembly. The straightest line is what we want, to avoid side loading of the
SC piston. (Another reason for using the center hole in the clutch shaft
actuating shaft)

Subject: [6pack] Clutch push rod?
Hello Gents,
The clutch push rod I got from TRF (stock type, solid and non-adjustable) has a
slight angle where the "fork" meets the solid bar. The bar is "straight"
longitudinally, but there's a bit of vertical angle. I looked at two cruddy old
ones and found this seems to be an original feature.

Is this just a production variation, or is there an "up" and "down" side?
Thanks, Tom
