Pretty straightforward, if I can do it anyone can! Yes measure the thread and set the new one to it, though still might need some minor adjustment when fitted. Main tip would be to remove the bonnet for better access. Life is not a rehearsal!

I have replaced the clutch master cylinder today. The pedal is 140mm from the floor with no mats to the bottom of the pedal.
I have bled the clutch and now the biting point is very close to the floor, only have to bring my foot up a fraction and its off! How do I adjust the biting point so its not that close to the floor? 1999 Defender TD5 110 Regards John M0VAZ Econet Station 48 no clock |

Cheers for the link, having read through the article, I'm sure my adjustment screw (5 & 4) is lower down and more a pedal stopper at the bottom of the travel.
How do you check the free play of 1.5mm? I peeled back the rubber cup and could not see a way of checking the free play. 1999 Defender TD5 110 Regards John M0VAZ Econet Station 48 no clock |

I've got another document at work that I will dig out Monday. I am sure it goes into more detail, in fact it is part of same procedure for a TDCi.

Cheers Bob. For now it will do, it drives OK but would prefer the pedal a bit higher on the biting point 1999 Defender TD5 110

I changed mine recenctly as well. The stop in the drawing on LRO is not there on a TD5. That like you say is more of a pedal stopper. I messed about with the pushrod lucknuts for sometime but ended up with it being quite quickly off.....just like yours. I bled it 3 times, but it was still the same. I've driven it for a couple of months and either its got better or I have got used to it.
I tried raising the pedal, but then couldn't get a clutch. Sorry I can't be of more help. Chan Only Alcohol Can Save me Now Nanocom Available in the North West |

This is the bit from the document I have at work. Not sure if it helps but it does apply to TD5 and TDCi apparently.
One thing I looked at and you could check if you want to move the position is the clutch pedal position adjustment. If you take a look just below the coolant container you will find a square box with six x head screws and a switch bracket attached. Undo the six screws and move away the switch bracket, you'll find a nyloc nut on one end of a thread and two half, lock nuts on the top end. depending on which way you need to go, either lengthen or shorten the stroke by losening and moving the nuts, check the pedal for "grab" position and tighten up when happy. Be careful when putting the plate back on as there is a rubber seal. The bottom lefthand screw is a bit of a pain to get at but it can be done using a rachet type screw bit.

Cheers Bob, that is pretty much what I followed, the bit I couldn't suss was setting the play of 1.5mm in the push-rod. The drive to work today went OK. So will give it a few days and re-bleed/re-adjust and see what I can achieve. 1999 Defender TD5 110
