Clutch pedal stop? (Page 2/2)

There are some clutches that aren't happy with too much slave movement, but if that's the case just adjust the banjo bolt a bit shorter.

You haven't stated what transmission you've got, but the Isuzu requires slave movement of about 1-1/8" to fully disengage.

How much travel does your slave currently have?

I have the stock 5 speed getrag transmission.

When I fully depress the clutch pedal, the slave cylinder rod extends and moves the clutch operating lever on the transaxle approximately 5/8”.

The pedal feels great, has constant pressure but not too stiff, returns nicely. It just feels like the clutch disconnect point is too close to the floor and the pedal only returns to even with the brake pedal.

In my experience, the Getrag is more forgiving than the Isuzu (in regards to minimum slave travel required), but I don't believe 5/8" is enough to fully disengage the clutch.

It's a simple solution... you need more pedal travel.
