<html><body>OK the other point of wear is the clevis holding the clutch pedal in the footwell. New rods were exact replacement? One other point of "adjustment" are the shims behind the clutch master.

<div dir="ltr">Don-I would look into this (photos) as a possible
cause of your sloppy clutch. It is possible that both the "eyes" of
the clutch master and slave cylinder rods are worn to egg shaped
and the clevis flattened. The rod is the sacrificial item so more
than likely that is the culprit after 60K miles of push and shove.
Yes, unlike the brake master, there is no rod adjustment. Hank<br><br><div class="reply-new-signature"></div>

My 65 BJ8 clutch catches after I depress the pedal about 1 to 2
inches from the rest position . I’ve replaced the clutch master
cylinder and the slave cylinder. And I’ve bled the system .
There’s. No slipping of the clutch . Car has 60,000 on it with I’m
sure the original clutch. Is there any way to make it catch more
mid way when I depress the pedal? I know there are no threaded rods
on either the pedal box or at the transmission end . Maybe a
different length rod coming out of the slave cylinder?<br>
Thanks , Don<br><br>
