>On a friend's '75 TR6, replaced the clutch a few weeks ago, got drive
train re-assembled, etc.  During test drive, the clutch wouldn't push the
arm on the clutch shaft very far.  

Rebuilt slave cyl. with kit from V.B., replaced all fluid, bled system with
two people, one pushing pedal, other opening/closing bleed valve on slave.

Clutch is still soft, more ineffective now after the rebuild and fluid
change.

Please respond with suggestions as what to check next.

Into which hole in the cross shaft crank arm did you affix the slave
cylinder clevis?  It should be in the middle hole but I use the hole
closest to the pivot.  If this is not the problem then other suspects would
be 1) bad clutch components and 2) broken fork taper pin.  Both of those
include taking the transmission back out (ouch!) so let's hope that's not
it.

Good luck

Dave
