[DeTomaso] Clutch Master Cylinder and Shackle

[Doug Braun]

Dan,

	The pushrod on my old master cylinder is still connected to it so I must
have used the pushrod that came with the CNC master.

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
