Revisit of Adjusting screw on Trans Clutch Lever Options?
« on: September 29, 2025, 03:55:25 PM »
So on my G5 the rear case on the gearbox has had the pivot welded on after a drop years back. Should have just replaced it.
Anyway, having just had the box out, I was pulling my puzzler as to why the threaded clutch adjuster is screwed way in. I've been wondering for years why that's the case.
Obviously the pivot is a mm further out.
Is the adjuster hardened, I guess so? I fancy replacing it with something longer by 2or3 mm.
I'm thinking of using a grade 8 M8 x1 bolt obviously cut and slightly domed at the end.
Any suggestions or knowledge?

Cheers

The thread pitch is the same as a valve adjustment screw, that would be a good option.

You could try the dual oring throwout plunger that is longer than original.

If the outer body of the throw-out bearing assembly is recessed in the cover, you can add another thrust washer (or two) to bring it out close to flush.
