[GtrVspec]

hey guys...has anyone adjusted the clutch at home and if so how hard is it??? its grabbing to soon and i wouldnt mind chaging it if possible to do at home....and possibly the where to find the spot to adjust it...

The clutch activation is hydraulic, and is basically self-adjusting.

If the clutch is grabbing too soon, it's probable the clutch plate is wearing thin and is near the end of its life. You may be able to get something by adjusting the pushrod into the master cylinder, but that adjustment is generally to set the free-height of the pedal.

Depends on the clutch you have. If its a daily HD type of clutch the friction point will be closer to the floor, but if you have say a clutch that is meant for high RPM launches say a 5puck clutch it will be close to the top.
