Yes, I know. That was my point - you can get separate, adjustable parts
that fit the masters. From TriumphTune aka Moss Europe, if not elsewhere.
It's entirely possible that the parts from the slave cylinder will
fit - I don't know. The parts that I have on the master appear
slightly different than what's on the slave, but it might just work.

I'll try to remember to look up the part numbers that I installed.

I expect that someone like Dave Bean Engineering could sell you
a "generic" adjustable pushrod and clevis for Girling cylinders.

My concern about using a hard bushing is that it will be difficult
to press in and out true and without distorting the fork of the
clevis. That's why I prefer the idea of the tophat style
Thomson Nyliner, one per side - admittedly, I haven't done this.
