[TR] problem with clutch

[dave n]

check the attached photos.

the complete and total moron mechanic who put a lot of this car together put the slave on the wrong side of the bracket.  wasted a lot of time due to his incompetence.

but I do want to thank all of you who helped me piece this together and arrive at a solution.  ALL suggestions were helpful.  thank you again.

I was under the car trying to get the pushrod right when I realized that from an engineering standpoint it was done completely wrong – no one would design it so the bolts took the stress; you would design it so it pushed against the bracket.  then I checked the manual and found this picture.
