Too simplify the hunt for the correct length right release rod, it’s very simple to just lathe-cut a length of ¼” drill rod (provides square rod ends) to suit your particular situation (as was noted in the link Dr Dick provided). With the worm release lever mounted in the kicker cover and return spring attached, the spring should pull the release lever all the way rearward against the roll-pin stop. Install the cover and determine the distance between the middle right rod end and the outer edge of the release lever worm (tail of a dial caliper, piece of welding rod, etc). Decide how far you intend to have the adjuster screwed into the release lever worm (half way?), subtract this distance from the total distance measured previously and cut your right release rod to finish the job. Now you have a “custom made” clutch release rod set-up that is perfect for your specific machine.
