Clutch Pedal Getting Hard

[03yellow]

I've had several clutches put in my cobra. Replaced with factory cable and put new retainer sleeve on a couple of the changes. After 15,000 miles or so the foot pedal starts to get harder to push down.
I have the twin disk now and the pedal is starting to get harder to push in; about 20,000 miles. Cable is fine and no chirping from Tob.
Last clutch change: ram hdx single disk the tob sleeve look good the cable was fine. The clutch was disk was warn down: the fingers on the plate looked ok.
What do you think makes it harder to push the pedal down?

I had that problem once, and my issue was the pressure plate fingers. Mine appeared to look just fine but it gave the same issue with it being very stiff. Changed it and problem was gone. Might not be problem, but something you might look at. =)

OP,
Please post entire clutch component mods, such as:
TOB, Sleeve, Firewall adjuster, Clutch Quadrant, Cable, etc...

I am thinking the throw out bearing sleeve has dried out. Or just does not have enough grease on it.

However I would also disconnect the fork from the cable and test the cable and pedal movement to verify it is still nice and free.

+1 on the tob and sleeve could be the issue.

Finally found my post, wouldn't show up on iPhone after moved here.
Ram twin disk, ford tob, ford sleeve replaced with this clutch, ford cable, fedenza or steeda firewall adjuster, steeda triple hook quad.
Unhooked the cable at the clutch; everything is smooth and easy to move.

Running twin disk. This might not be fun or cheap.

It almost has to be insufficient grease on the T/O sleeve, being a new steel one it is probably save-able but will probably to be found too dry.
