Interesting, Andrew.
That would probably explain the less-than-professional-looking weld on the
clutch rod that I replaced on my TF a couple of years ago. It wasn't a bad
weld, just didn't look like it came that way factory. I'm pretty sure it was
a replacement.
I replaced it with a Moss clutch rod & a Cobalt adjustable clutch link rod.
Worked well for me.
