Default Why does my clutch keep needing to be adjusted

I put in a new ebc with the heavy duty springs a while back when my gasket started leaking.. I keep having to adjust my clutch, it keeps tightning up (no play).

It just tightens up(no play) and stays that way.

If you shift from neutral to 1st, does it jerk forward more than usual? My LT did that for a while and it turned out to be a bolt on the pressure plate was too long and was hitting the basket. I would take off the cover and take a look inside, this isnt normal.

It works fine, then I notice I have no play in the handle and it seems to slip a little. I reset the play and it is fine, but I have done this three times. The cable is pretty new. Can something from the lever at the case to the pressure plate that can slip a tooth or something?

I looked at albaaction and it seems like there is something that might skip a tooth on the shaft that goes down into the clutch. #26 looks like might be your problem.

When you pull and it skipped or stripped it would be lose. Or so it looks. I'm going to pull the shaft out and check it. Then put it back and make sure it's on the arrow.
