Replaced clutch master and slave now I have transmission noise
Hey guys, I just replaced my clutch master and slave cylinder and now I have some high pitched sound that coming from below, I'm thinking the transmission. I replaced the master because it was dripping fluid inside the cab. I went ahead and replaced the slave too because it was recommended to do both at the same time. It was straightforward but the slave was a p.i.t.a. because I couldn't get the pin in when mounting it. I eventually got it back on and everything looks good. Any ideas what might be causing the noise? It goes away when the clutch is in.

Does it sound like a bearing? Kind of a "whirring" sound?
typically that would be the throughout bearing. If you are not due for a clutch job i would ignore the noise. You can go a long time with a noisy throughout bearing. Could also be the tranny input shaft bearing. Same advice.

No, it should stay in place in order to adjust pedal free play.
I don't think you need to adjust your pedal height, it should have not changed.
It might take a couple of times to get it set properly.
Look at the the procedure that "se7enine" has posted.

Just wanted to respond with an update. I never really found out what that sound was. I tried to adjust the pedal free play though and it helped me get into 2nd easier, which is nice... A few weeks later my clutch went out on the highway. The shifter would move but the transmission would not engage at all. So I got a new kit, had it out in, and had a professional adjust the free play. It drove like butta' for a bit but now it seems like the pedal could be adjusted again. I'm lost at this point. Not too worried about it though -- I have a new master and slave cylinder plus a whole new clutch so there's not a whole lot left to the system.
