    Does anyone know if or how the clutch on my 06 780 with an isx can be adjusted? My original clutch was replaced a year ago.

    Becouse it is hydrolically controlled.

    Ok, there are two points of ajastement. Nut on pressure plate (yep, remove small bellhousing door first) and pushrod may be ajastable.

    Go under the truck open the service hole , bump the start key until adjusting bolt faces down , get a socket and ratchet have someone push the clutch pedal and hold it , put the socket on the bolt push it in and turn the bolt 1-2 turns , start the engine ,check the pedal ,if to high turn more

    I took the cover that has 2 bolts on it and do not see the bolt on the pressure plate you are talking about.The only linkage is inside the hyd. assy.Is that what has to be adj.
