[DeTomaso] Clutch Master Cylinder and Shackle

[Gray Gregory]

Dan,

The answer is yes you can just pull the pushrod through the boot to
remove.

The CNC masters do come with a pushrod and the vendor should have asked
if you have a late car or not because the length as you said is
different; although if memory serves it's the later cars that use the
shorter pushrod. It's also not uncommon for people to just re-use the
existing pushrod to avoid having to get the clevis pin out of the pedal
assembly.

The fact that the shackle (called a clevis in the parts book) was held
by
only one thread and the clutch pedal still had to travel a couple of
inches
before encountering any resistence makes me suspect the pushrod is too
short.
In the parts book there are two different shackle lengths and pushrod
lengths.
I've got a '74L with the effort reduction kit.  It lists the length as
60mm
for the pushrod and 30mm shackle.  Does anyone know if the the CNC
master
comes with its own pushrod or do you re-use the existing pushrod?  Also,
can I simply pull the pushrod through the boot to remove?

Thanks,
Dan Jones
