After a couple hours to calm down and further investigation I noticed the new clutch fork moves just like the old one. And the spring from the motor mount to the fork is pulling is downward. I took the spring off and I can push the fork upwards and it levels out but I don’t think the spring I have is the factory spring and lmc only sells the spring under the dash(which I don’t see where it’s installed and it’s not in the leftover parts box so I guess they just got my spring) I did have the guy install a boot around the clutch fork but he said it caused interference so he cut it apart and removed it. I changed the length of the spring(looks like it had been bent before) and I hooked it through the frame beside the shock(hopefully pull up some) the clutch is super hard to press with the new fork and with the fork moving my adjustment changes everytime I press the pedal down. Currently it grabs about two inches off the floor and if you press it the whole way to the floor it has a spot maybe an inch up where it binds? I guess it’s maybe going too far? With the new adjustment rod I’m just past the middle so the longer throw out bearing is the only beneficial thing so far. I tried adjusting per procedure of pedal all the way up and adjust until it slips into the top hole then put in bottom hole but then I can’t put it in gear and it moves with the pedal all the way down and there’s a lot of play in the fork.
