The clutch pedal on my '74 2.0 is too close to me. I want to adjust it forward but cannot budge the shaft. I have loosened the retaining nut but I cannot spin the shaft forward. There is plenty of threads to make an adjustment but it will not turn. I cannot get a good grip on the shaft with any tool because it is round and I don't want to grab the pedal shoe for fear of breaking it off. Tried PB Blaster, but no effect. How the hell do I get this thing loose??? Ideas appreciated.

I just took the clutch pedal off the bracket today in preparation for sending the pedal cluster for a rebuild. I hit the threads with penetrating oil top and bottom (kroil in my case), waited a few minutes, loosened the nut, then cut a piece of rubber fuel hose to wrap around the shaft so I didn’t mar it and clamped down on the rubber with some vise grips. It turned after a little encouragement and the rubber kept the shaft from getting messed up.
