So, to answer your question I have adjusted it so that I am at the end of the rod and if I back it out any more I'd need to look for a thinner nut or get it to hang on by just a thread.
I assumed that because I was at the end of the adjustment rod that it was time to replace the clutch, so I'm suprised to hear that the clutch wear goes in the opposite direction. I will do the pilot bushing test in the morning and I will look to see if anything is bent as well. Though, I'm not sure I'll be able to recognize normal from bent. Here are some more symptoms: when I step on the clutch I have to step WAY down on the pedal. I initially though that I needed to give it some time to let it spin down so I tried holding the pedal down for 5-6 seconds but no luck. As I held the pedal down and waited I tried to select a gear several times over the course of ten second and the gnashing gear sound didn't change across the ten seconds. That lead me to think that it wasn't a throwout or pilot bushing but was a linkage issue. when I press the clutch pedal way down to the very end on its travel, then it engages. But, twice while doing that I heard a grinding noise. I could "feel the noise" in the clutch pedal too. That has happened twice in about 150 times pressing the clutch.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
