Back in the dim past, TR2', 3's and maybe some 4's (can't remember on 
the 4's) had an adjustable arm from the slave cyl to the clutch release 
arm with a return spring. The rod was similar to the 6's except the rod 
was threaded into the clevis and could be adjusted for clearance between 
the T.O. bearing and the pressure plate. Spring shoved the piston into 
the slave cyl and the rod adjustment allowed sufficient throw to 
facilitate proper clutch release. Often wondered why they converted to 
the system used by the 6. Old system seemed to work fine....or maybe I 
was just a kid and didn't know any better.
