not for certain sure, but i'm thinking it's hydraulic slave cylinder. the thing that's between the fork and the throwout bearing. i'll try to find my service manual and get a better answer for you.

The slave cylinder only retracts till the pressure is off the pressure plate.

No adjustments.

What truck, what problem?

You may need to adjust the master cylinder rod, or if the rod is not adjustable you may need to remove the clutch arm the master cylinder rod attaches to.
