Default clutch pedal squeaks all the damn time

Have lubed the small piston that enters the cylinder near the fire wall but no change, worse when I let off on the cluthc pedal than when I depress it. Just annoying as hell....maybe the hydraulic system is worn out?? Any ideas?? Doc

Look above that piston way at the top where the pedal pivots, probably a little bushing worn out. Just shoot some lube up there and see if that fixes or at least you will know what your problem is.

Don't let it go too long! I ended up having to replace the pivot pin & mounting bracket for the pedals. The plastic wear sleaves the pedals rotate on leave much to be desired. An actual bearing assembly for the pedal pivot pin would be a major improvement.
