Default What's the difference between an Adjustable Master and a Clutch Pedal Stop?

I am assuming their intended to acheive the same results... Adjustable master keeps the Master from bottoming out... Pedal stop keeps the Pedal AND master from bottoming out..

If the intentions are the same.. I'd prefer the pedal stop.. this actually Shortens the pedal throw.. The Adjustable master I assume still allows for FULL pedal travel but simply does not engage the master till the very end..

Please explain if I have this info wrong...

I am planning to order this...

Well, the adj. master is there to compensate. Sounds like they would be working hand in hand honestly.

I think that item would be the same as mounting an appropriately sized block of wood to the backside of your clutch pedal. - thus protecting the clutch from being "over-extended"

I think an adustable clutch allows you to actually reposition the "neutral" spot of your clutch. the purpose of this is to get the clutch pedal where the driver prefers it, not necessarily to protect the clutch.

Just my 2 cents.

They are different
