Since we had to replace basically thing with new parts due to wear we matched up pretty much everything possible. In fact with the excessive amount of wear on the pivot ball and the back side of the clutch fork I didn't see how the thing was ever releasing completely before, and, in fact, may have been a contributing factor in the other clutch coming shedding the friction material like it did.

That said we matched up everything possible so far as the pivot ball being correct (came from the dealership), the fork being the right shape, the throwout bearing being identical to the other, etc. The only things that we can't match are the bores on the master and slave cylinder, but looking at them on the outside they are identical too.

As far as bleeding, there is no way to revderse bleed this setup. Where as old slave cylinders had a standard bleeder screw in them this one doesn't. All it has is an allen headed screw threaded down into a riser on the side of the cylinder body. When you loosen it it bleeds the fluid out through a pinhole in the side of the riser. Because of the way it's designed, and the placement of the bleed hole, there isn't even anhy way to completely remove the screw and hook a hose to the riser. Once again modern engineering has reached a new peak with this design.

All of that said I'm hoping to get time this evening to pull the master cylinder and see if I can figure out how to check the bore size, and the length of the actuating rod against the old parts. I didn't thibk about it last night, but my buddy put those parts in while I was getting a broken bracket on the PTO driveline and some other things taken care. He's been doing this kind of thing himself for years also so he should have caught any discrepencies just like I would..... but we were trying to hurry to beat a stoem that was coming up, so who knows....

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
