my clutch stop consists of just adjusting the clutch pedal down til it bottoms out on the floor at the right time. There is no need in adding hardware.

I simply have the pedal set, right where I like it, then have a very small peice of 2x4 screwed into the back side of the carpet where you cant see it. Pedal has a nice soft feal when it hit the carpet/wood.

Here's what you asked. Is it necessary, no it isn't but it def doesn't hurt ANYTHING by having one.

Basically it's adjustable as you can see so when the clutch wears down or I go to a diff clutch it can be adjusters as well. Then it's held down by a 10mm bolt. I'd rather not take a chance of over extending anything.

um...

Few easy ways to get it done, either modify the pedal, or as ahobbs posted, make a riser off the floor board.

You can also remove the clutch inhibiter switch on the pedal bracket and use a M12 bolt.

Since this topic is up. How are you guys adjusting the pedal stop on a dogbox? When are you realizing where to set it at?

Paul is doesn't really matter on transmission, but the spot where it will engage into gear. Once you get that engagement spot, you wanna go about 1/4" past that and that is where your pedal stop should be. Make sure everything is bled properly. Hope that helps.

It has nothing to do with the tranny, it's about what twin disc your running. I know CC requires a stop

The Bolt and Nut on the clutch arm is stationary, The M12 x 1.25, which can replace the NSS, is what will be adjusted in or out. Its really simple but affective



Heres a video. Im not the best commentater but at least you get an idea.

Here's what i planned on doing, I have a EK Hatch, and running the comp twin. Could i just replace Clutch switch A with a bolt long enough to hit the medal part on the clutch, or have to run two bolts for it

Here's a picture of what i'm taking about



I removed Switch A also.

I usually weld a nut on the pedal assembly right about the area of logo A in the picture of the previous post and use a piece of threaded rod on the end with a lock nut on the pedal side of the assembly. I'll be doing one sometime soon and I'll snap some pics and post it up.

This is how my car is done aswell.

I had a long bolt in where the clutch switch was but that was a pain in the *** to adjust.

Here's how I usually do them, looks like it might be in the way of your foot but it isn't even close, and it stops on the rubber that the clutch arm normally stops on.
Still needs to be cleaned up.
