You will most likely need to extend the master rod...might want to take care of this before you install the new one....will save you time later...you only need to extend it a total of 1/2 inch.

You can have any shop do this

The thread you will need is m8x1.25

cut off 1.5 inches, and weld on 2 inches of thread.

Gotta love freaken 1G's setup.

Remember the extended SLAVE rod doesnt do anything to solve the problem.

The problem is there is not enough fluid being pumped through the master slave cylinder by the defective and failing design of the 1G clutch setup.
huh? what are you trying to say? to weld the nut behind the master cyl rod? That's a mega band-aid I'm not gonna do unless I absolutely have to(like I have before).

The plan is to:

1)replace/check slave cyl. get an extended rod
2)replace/check Master cyl.
3)take trans off, new fork, ball, shim ball
then band-aid with
4)weld nut on bracket for master cyl rod.
5)pull pedal assembly and weld everything solid w/ new bushings.

anyone have anything besides those?
