How much is to much for metal shaving ? Pictures attached . Clutch bell housing

Truck is in the shop for clutch to be looked at. Clutch pedal was stiffer than stiff yesterday and parked it over night and this morning wasn’t near as stiff. Hydraulic clutch. Fluid level full. Shop said clutch just needed adjustment. I had taken cover off to look in it. Has a lot of shaving in there atleast to me.

 

Thanks for the response! Yesterday when I pressed the clutch pedal In I had never felt a clutch take so much effort to press it in. But when I did press it in it sounded like something was rattling so I thought clutch was toast. This morning I started it and went to drop it off at the shop it wasn’t stiff and didn’t hear the rattling noise like it was yesterday. Thought that was real strange. But yeah. I never used so much effort to engage a clutch .

 

I’m not sure if it’s self adjusting. How would I know that?

 

I believe so!

 

I’ll keep an eye on it. Shop said they adjusted the clutch. I thought the hydraulic clutches were self adjusting but I’m no mechanic! I think I’ll be buying a clutch just to have so when it goes I only have to worry about the labor. Wish I was capable of doing it myself! One day I’m hoping to have a shop so I can do more. But for now all I have is a driveway with crushed concrete and won’t be rolling anything around on it LOL . Not to mention it’s only 10 degrees and only gunna get colder!
