clevis pin and slave pushrod misalignment

I'm in the process of replacing clevis pin and slave cylinder pushrod in my 70 B. Im having some difficulty lining up the holes in the slave pushrod and the cluth lever. i have pushed it into the slave as far as it appears to want go and it is misaligned by approx half the diameter of the clevis hole.
Do I need to drain the slave?? I also tried to take slave of housing and install pin but i can't align slave bolts to housing. thanking you in advance for your help. Bob J
 
Re: clevis pin and slave pushrod misalignment

I don't know if you mean "drain" as in "completely empty", but no you don't have to drain the slave. But you may need to unscrew the bleeder screw just a little to vent the slave cylinder let the slave cylinder piston move back.
