t56 swap question, clutch pedal play
I've got a question because in my reading, it's not something I've found here. I already have my swap completely installed. Runs great. However, my issue is with the clutch master cylinder to pedal connection.
I've got 4th gen pedals installed. The hole in the clutch cylinder rod is a bit bigger then the post on my pedal. So when you press the pedal, you have to take up the slack from one side of the hole to the other. Very sloppy. Probably 3/16" of clearance. I though I might just be missing a bushing, but I can't find any evidence that one exists. Hence my confusion. I figure I can make one. Sure would be easier if I had access to a lathe. Just curious if anone else has seen this.

4th gen hydraulics have a bushing. Mine did at least. They didn't fit my thirdgen pedals, though. No idea what I did with it.

Yes the 4th gen hydraulics have a bushing. It comes as part of the MC rod. It's plastic. I have no clue how to get one besides buying a new MC with one which is how I got mine.
