Clutch adjustment

How do I adjust my 97 power stroke clutch? Is it like the older fords with a nut and a jam nut?? I haven't checked it out yet do I'm not sure. Just want an idea.

There is no adjustment. The clutch is hydraulic. If you are feeling some slop in the linkage look at the plastic bushing on the end of the clutch push rod and the pedal box bushings under the dash. They're both known places for making the clutch feel sloppy.

Oh. Wait. I mean the clutch pedal. There's no way of adjusting it?

Nope. Take a look see under the dash. You either have worn out pedal box bushings or the push rod bushing is shot.
