Hi Marlinjack,
Understand your response, there is no way to adjust the HEIM joint because it is not a HEIM joint. I was very surprised to find out that it was simply the threaded end with the eye with no connection other than being kept in the slave cylinder by means of the return pressure in the concave rod. There is no bolt or thread into the slave cylinder or bolt connection to adjust. I guess the PO had to McGiver a clutch situation a some point in time and decided for this less optimal solution. Especially since there is no free play adjustment possible.
that is the reason why i would like to know what other Pantera owners know about the amount of travel. It looks like about one inch and a half for clutch disengagement. When I have some numbers I can better weigh my options and more importantly have a better discussion with the guys who sold me the new MC when checking for an alternate slave cylinder.
