Default Clutch petal stop to prevent non-adjustable master cylinders? What did you do?

It was bought to my attention that I need something to stop the throw of my clutch so I don't over extend the lever on the stock style Master Cylinder for my t-56. I have been debating on what to do about this.

I want to make something that is going to prevent the over throw of the clutch petal, but make it adjustable so I can adjust how far the petal will travel. What have you guys done?

Thanks,
Ryan

I added a stop on the pedal itself..





It is a simple job, but works. that stop is a hood adjuster.. have had no problems if it flexing or bending.

I think you stated what the Master and slave were in your other post. but if they are OEM.. then make sure the travel in the master is just short of 1"... Also might consider the Free Drill Mod on the master end of hyd line.

Thanks BCZEE. I like that, and I think I could make that easy enough. Do you have a picture of that with the petal installed?
