I am using a 85 chevy truck bell and hydraulic clutch set up in a hot rod. My question to you guys is: How does the rod (coming out of the slave) get adjusted. It looks like it is just a rod, not threaded or anything. Other kits and vehicles I have looked at alll have an adjustable rod. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thx guys

There is no adjustment in the factory rod. Can't even surface the flywheel on the hydraulic setup. Have to get a reman one.

wrong. i had my flywheel resurfaced and they sold me a thin shim plate to put between the crank and the flywheel that is the thickness they took off from resurfacing the flywheel.

Can someone give me the exact length of a stock rod? I need one and will probably have to resort to making my own.
thx again guys
