 Bill---True, dat. I like my hydraulic bearing release also, but what
Ron is experiencing is unusual, given all that he's replaced and the
measurements he's reported. His clutch should be releasing/ engaging
when the pedal is around an inch or more from the floor. He's got a bum
part in there somewhere!

Hi folks, 
                There is a solution,
replace all that mechanical stuff with a modern hydraulic throw out
bearing. They are now available for Triumph Transmissions ... Guys ...
these things work ... and are used by many vintage racers here and in
England ... I know the nay-sayer will deem them unreliable, but that is
just not true, if properly installed they work great. I will admit it
takes some careful measurements and rudimentary math to get the
clearance correct but you will love the result. 
                I have them in Casper
(TR3) and Rosey (TR6) and could not be happier.   If you are
interested let me know and I will tell you where you can get them (NFI)
I just don't want to start a flame war at the mention of the suppliers
name.
Bill
