How to make the clutch pedal softer?

What kind of truck do you drive snowwy ?

 

Why do you always sound so angry and negative snowwy

 

THANK YOU! people are getting confused, what you feel when you step on the clutch and TRY to push down is NOT the throw out bearing (on an 06 it's prolly hydrolic not mech.) the pressure you feel is in the clutch's pressure plate! It can be changed BUT only by removing the tranny! $$$

Many clutches are never properly lubricated, besides greasing the cross shafts, the release bearing and slide sleeve needs to be lubricated, the grease that properly the pedal, must be fully depressed, and then the bearing greased, to the point the grease is forced down the slide sleeve.
#2 the clutch pedal in the cab, if you look up the pedal, there is a tube, it has nylon bushings, on each end, and many will get very stiff, the fix is to drill the shaft with a 15/64 drill bit, in the middle of the tube, then just screw in a zert, they are 1/4 NF. no need to tap it use a nut driver to screw it in. Then grease it up, it takes a few times to get the tube fully lubricated.
I prefer to do the simple cheap things first, changing the geometry of the clutch linkage, I have done that on cab overs to get proper adjustments, never to ease the pedal effort.

 

I think Pablo gave the right answer.
It is a strong woman that can use a fully mechanical clutch without forcing herself.

 

actually. if you have the light duty clutch plate. it's real easy. it's the heavy duty clutch plates that suck.

and plates usually get weak. making an easier pedal.

i only sound negative with other comments sound negative first. then i fire back.

you push the pedal down. which moves a fork inside the transmission. the fork contains the bearing which sits against the plate. push the forrk, u push the bearing into the springs of the plate. it's the pressure from the plate that pushes the fork and bearing back. if the plate had weak springs. the clutch wouldn't be tight and would be slipping.

and fork and bearing wouldn't be pushed back into the fully rest position.

 

buzzzzz wrong the clutch fork is to hold the bearing and to connect it to the linkage. WOW and I thought any high school dropout would have known that.

 

Sorry, it don't work that way on a big truck. The release bearing is made into the clutch on a big truck, the release yoke just pulls it back when clutch is depressed.

 

I was thinking the same, but didn't know that there is less stiff available. If there is even 1200 pound, I will take it. I don't really care how much it will last if it is easy to work with it. So what should I do, just go to the store and ask for a 1800?
