Read please. "Instructions/step by step " and review!

Good. I wanted to make a "how to" video but I've never posted anything like this before, so I'll write a detailed review/guide to help others. This setup is not for the faint of heart. To remove the clutch lever, mine was closer to 18mm and was tight as hell, the lever "pushes in" so it takes a small pry bar, rocking it back and forth to remove it. cylinder rod. I've tried a hacksaw, but the thing is hardened steel. So much so that it's tougher than a hardened steel clutch lever. Mine was about half eaten by wear and tear. So I used a worn cutting wheel (to be small enough to get into hard-to-reach places). I cut VERY close to the "ring" on the slave cylinder. The factory makes them "bulge out" near the ring, so some grinding was required to fit the lip socket. Removing the factory pin was difficult. Once it comes out you will need to drill a hole to use the screw provided. When it came time to reset the clutch lever, I just made sure to push in (gradually) after tightening the clutch lever to make sure "full out" was in the right place. Hope that helps. I have a decent amount of mechanic/shop tools and it took me about 1.5 hours from start to finish. Follow-up thoughts: Grip feels a lot better. No more streaks. I just finished this and didn't drive it, but I started the truck and rocked it back and forth for the "clutch grip" feel. That's quite an improvement!
