Re: Longhorn trucks - what were the options

Not sure what I put in there but if memory serves I chose the stock replacement but a very good quality one. So maybe it's the old style. I can say that the clutch peddle is about 35 Lbs or so to depress (I could be way off) and my knee is shot driving in L.A. traffic. It would be well worth it to me to switch to a diaphragm if I could keep my truck (28 years so far). I already lubed up the linkage and removed the return spring -still a bear to operate. How easy is a 12" diaphragm in comparison?
