Help! Clutch pedal problem

[redneckaggie]

Napa # BK 6151187

they call it a clutch adjustment rod, comes with bushing, adjustable and only 15 bucks

ok so id just scrap the old metal/plastic rod and throw this sucker in? (and adjust it to length ofcourse)

 

[redneckaggie]

yep really makes it easy to work with just adjust rod until you take the slack out of the pedal and you are good to go

Apparently they don't have that part number (guess canada and americas numbers are
Different) do you happen to know what make model etc that part is meant for?

 

[redneckaggie]

its just a general item its not listed for a certain vehicle. that is a napa part number other parts places might have different numbers so they would have to cross reference that number. Not sure how you would find it if thats not possible but it is a balkamp part.

Did you get the rod out with the MC still bolted to the firewall from the inside ? Buy a new MC and just use the rod ! Save the MC for later.

i cross referenced the part number with the name....since the only thing the incompetent lady behind the counter could tell me is 'this is canada'. right now its going to be here in two days my dad also rigged up a pretty sweet set up looks almost identical to the napa one ......thats a good price thanks sikpup! and thanks to all who replied to this thread and have helped me!

^ those are the parts i have....from what i can tell the first picture with the two identical lever looking things is the part that attaches to the rod and the other and attaches to the pedal assembly?

That would suck, howd you end up repairing that

Soo maybe I need to be more direct with my question, how would I go about getting the push rod back into the master cylinder?.....and to bleed the system would I use the brake dot 3 stuff?

The push rod fits tight in the master you just have to force it in there. When I did the zf swap on my truck, I put a new master on it so i had it out of the truck when I put it in.
And DOT 3 should be fine.

Thanks!

i figured out where the white cylinder with spring go (inside the mc)....this shall be fun to put back together :/

pedal slapped the floor again, so I checked mc rod right away then checked mc reservoir, I saw no brake fluid so I went underneath the truck and saw fluid in the front drive shaft, ground and slave...I think its safe to assume I need a new slave. do you guys think I should change the line while I'm at it?
