Thank you.

Made the adjustment to lower the clutch point not raise it as stated in the pdf. I thought the clutch point was to high, the spring to strong for a good feel and the stroke too long. YMWV.

Replaced the factory spring with the item referenced in another thread, here is the link;

I had to adjust 2 switches on mine, the disengagement stopper switch and the return stopper switch. As you shorten the length of the rod you will have to adjust the return stopper switch down, this lowers the clutch point.

The disengagement stopper switch will be adjusted up. This will shorten the stroke of the pedal. It's pretty obvious after you see what is going on. You will need a shorty 12 and 14 wrench. 12 for the rod, 14 for the stopper switches.

A final test to make sure you have not adjusted too much, park on a hill in 1st, stop engine, release clutch, push your clutch pedal in, you should have some travel before it disengages.
