Adjusting Clutch

I just recently replaced my clutch hydraulic system. New Master, Slave, and the hose inbetween. I bled the system according to the instructions and everything now works great. I only have one complaint, the clutch now disengages and a much different location than before. I liked how it was before and was wondering if there was any way to adjust along the pedal's travel where the clutch disengages. Thanks for any help!

listen to boostedmotorsports, he is ryte. you adjust the clutches friction piont by loosening the bolt on the rod and spinning the rod in or out (in for a higher friction piont, and out for a lower friction piont) use a 10mm wrench if it get too tight adjusting rod in. don't forget to tightrn the locking bolt (dont try to loosen the bolt on the pedal. it's welded on)

which way does the friction point change where the clutch engages? ie higher friction point does the clutch disengage closer to the ground or further up? thanks for the help!
