Taboo was completely wrong in the previous posts. I would never, under any circumstances, install an extended rod. It does damage to the TOB, pressure plate and engine thrust. The way the system works is the pressure is released in the system when the pedal is all the way up. When that pressure is gone the TOB does not put pressure in teh pressure plate any longer and just sits there like it's supposed to. The extended rod bottoms out the piston inside the slave. When this happens the system cannot return to its home position when you let off the pedal and it puts constant pressure in the system at all times which will cause failure. You need to figure out what is wrong with your clutch setup instead of sticking a band aid like an extended rod on it that will do more harm than good.
The extended rod is a scam that damages not only your clutch, but your engine as well. I am still suprised people sell those things.
