[Spridgets] So Glad About Finally Getting My Clutch Working

[Peter Caldwell]

Land Rovers had a slave adjustment and a return spring on the Series 
2. On the Series 2As, the part numbers changed to reflect no spring, 
and no adjustment. All other components stayed the same.

It seems adjusting the clutch (or rather NOT adjusting the clutch) 
was too much effort, and not needed, and problematic if done incorrectly.

Few, if any cars nowadays have an adjustable slave cylinder and 
return spring. The bearing is fine gently riding on the pressure 
plate... just like brake pads. But, like brake SHOES, if your gonna 
have a spring, then you're gonna have to adjust for wear.

I "upgraded" my Landie by removing the spring.  woo-hoo
