Frank,
I have it apart. . and I see that when the throw out bearing reaches the
clutch splines that it is a bit off center.
Is there any room for the bearing to hit the clutch splines off center a
bit? As this could also be an issue, as you mentioned of having too long of
a slave rod.
To add, I might be running a throw out fork from a smooth case. Are the
smooth case throw out forks different for the ribcase with a 1275?
(Thanks for the measurements on the slave rod. . I will check that as
well).
Thanks,
Kirk
