Re: 62 slave cylinder push or pull?

Adjust the slave pushrod until it is very slack or even remove it. Then see how much play you have in the range of motion of the fork. Pulling the fork end FORWRD towards the front of the truck will place it against the front of the tranny. In that position, the fork should be at 90 degrees or the end a little towards the front. Now move the fork end REARWRDS towards the rear of truck, after very short motion, the throwout bearing should contact the arms or fingers of the pressure plate. If there is a lot of movement, your throwout bearing is too short. If there is only a little slack, reinstall the slave pushrod, adjust it till it compresses the piston in the slave (open the hydraulic circuit for this) to seat the piston all the way in, but with the spring attached there should be 1/8 " or so clearance between the throwout bearing and pressure plate fingers at rest.
Rebleed and try again. The slave should move the rod, thus the end of the fork lever, towards the rear of truck. Probably 1-2 inches, and this should release clutch disc IF flywheel, disc, pressure plate, and throw out bearing are all correct and good.
