Don't be too quick to call me a wuss here...
THe clutch on this truck is very stiff in my opinion. I have driven all kinds of old beat ass F600s and A few Kodiaks. The only thing I have ever driven with a stiffer clutch pedal was My friend's old Flexible Bus... my ass left the seat every time I shifted that thing...
Anyway, there's something wrong with my knee (goes all the way back to highschool track running so I can't blame it on this truck), and after A long weekend of driving this thing I typically spent several stiff days limping around, and I'm tired of it. This truck's all apart and I've been bombarding this website with all kinds of questions about various engine tech and other crap, so here's some more...
I want to know if there is a larger bore master cyl., or something that will soften up the pedal feel. The return springs on the pedal, and on the slave look more like garage door springs than clutch springs, so this may be a large part of the problem also... havn't tried playing with the springs yet (I'm sure I will) but the truck is apart now, and I want to tackle as much as I can while putting everything back.
Thanks.
