I have a Lakewood 15210 Bellhousing. The pivot ball is the Lakewood Adjustable Clutch Fork Pivot Ball for that item. Here is the page: http://www.lakewoodindustries.com/Pr...minselection=6

You use a threaded rod coming out of the slave cylinder. The threaded rod pass completely though a larger piece that will make contact with the clutch fork. It is brass colored in the photo below. You can also see a silver locknut that holds the brass piece locked in place. The threaded rod passes all the way through the clutch fork via a hole that you must drill in the fork itself. You can place another nut on the threaded rod behind the clutch fork to ensure that it does not pop out of the fork on really fast shifts. Thus, everything is adjustable on the threaded rod.

Just to be extra clear, the brass colored piece that comes in direct contact with the clutch fork is also threaded (it is not smooth-bored around the threaded rod). Thus you turn that brass colored piece while holding the threaded rod to adjust its proximity to the fork. This older post of mine has more detailed instructions on adjusting the clutch: Clutch Adjustments
