Short travel of what? The clutch pedal?

If so there is either:

a) air in your lines or
b) clutch master cylinder is going out

There is no "number" to the clutch.

run it till it slips.

76k miles and adding. 300's hp. Assertively driven.

Many members are able to get long life out of their clutch. Just don't shift like a jackass
