On this video i made a tutorial on how to replace the Clutch Master cylinder. I searched youtube and i saw that no one had upload this so here you go. It's a very easy job. 80% easier than the time that i replaced the brake master cylinder.

Another way to do this is to put something heavy on the pedal, fit the clevis pin and split pin via the engine bay with long-nose pliers and THEN place the master cylinder and nut up. Saves all the pain and gymnastics involved in doing it in the car.

Must have been done this way on the assembly line, couldn’t see the antics I’ve got up to in trying to replace clevis pin inside the crossmember occurring on a moving production line!

Now that's a good idea you want to be careful your foot doesn't fall off!

My only comments are it ain’t 13mm. And you did not show how you got the clevis pin in.  A Fork makes it easy.

When I put mine in via the engine bay the only problem I had was I kept dropping the clevis pin right at the critical moment. I solved that by securing the pliers handles with a cable tie, went straight in then. So much easier than breaking your back and going cross-eyed on the floor.
