I don't know the manufacturer of the clutch or bearing and they seem to be working fine its just that I'm getting a bit of play at the top of the pedal and wondering if bleeding it might help and I'm not sure how to bleed a clutch I've only done brakes.
it's mounted outside of the bell housing and it's the one that's on backdrafts site I don't know the manufacturer.

If everything is working properly, there should be an adjustment behind the pedal in the foot footwell that will let you adjust the pedal travel.

I made a short Video of the paddle shift entering the master.

Showing the travel before it gets to the point where it's pushing fluid to the slave cylinder, seems like the master might be wearing out by the play in the shaft not sure?

I tried to remove the cap on the master to check the fluid it's in such a tight spot it doesn't seem like a Wants to come off, Does anyone know if I need to push it down before I turn it?

thanks

A replacement master is reasonable enough.

It looks like it will be a real bear to replace It, any tips? Maybe take out the side vent?

D111, it looks like some of your play is from the turn buckle clevis pin, where it's connected to the clutch arm.

Ditto....some serious mechanical play in both turnbuckle ends.

Whats your car no? When was the last time clutch fluid was changed? Do u have a heat shield under the clutch master? I would suggest u tighten the linkage up, replace fluid if it has not been changed lately, and order a heat shield from BDR if it does not have one.

Open the Bleeder on the slave (drain oil). Add fluid and flush till fluid is CLEAR.
Bleed until clutch is firm. My have to bleed a few times.
