Yes, the rod does adjust the pedal free travel, however, am I correct in saying that the clutch will not work properly if the clutch pedal is no longer able to compensate for the thinning of the friction disc? Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the purpose of adjusting the linkage to prevent the throw-out bearing from touching the fingers with the clutch pedal in the rest position, which could lead to slippage? I am just trying to determine if I have a whole clutch worth of adjustment left or almost nothing at all. I have about 4 or 5 of the rod threads inside the clevis and about 20 or 25 in between the two clevis ends. The tractor originally had excessive free-play which I remedied by lengthening the rod (leaving me with 4 turns in the clevis). As the clutch wears, the free play should decrease right? So that should mean that I should shorten the clutch linkage to account for wear, which would mean that I have a ton of clutch left, correct? That is what I am concerned with. Thank you for your post, I appreciate your time and help.
