Default clutch pedal stop

was looking for some info if anyone uses a clutch pedal stop so they don't over travel the clutch pedal ? I was thinking of ether fabing something up to attach to the floor with a bolt to adjust the pedal travel or attach something to the pedal its self with a bolt to adjust it.

thank you

What makes you think you are going to over travel the peddle?

I don't know. I was just think there is nothing stopping the pedal from over traveling. which means nothing is stopping the slave from going to far into the pressure plate.

I made a adjustable one. Just a piece of tube with one end smashed flat, a nut welded to the other end, jam nut and a carriage bolt. I bolt it to the clutch pedal.

This isn't something you have to worry about, especially if you are on a stock or stock type of clutch. If you want to potentially change peddle travel then get an adjustable master cylinder.

I have one but my whole clutch pedal assembly is custom made for my Impala SS. I use it as a stop so my neutral safety switch does not act as a stop. I set it just before my NSS bottoms out

I also have a adjustable MC (McLeod made by Wilwood) so I can adjust the "travel" of the pedal also. Works well with my McLeod Street Twin

Almost all of these "good" multi disc clutches should have a pedal stop or some way of limiting it from over throwing.
