Yep, it happened agan - even when moving the rod over to the other side, I had to extend it again and again since it wasn't disengaging the t/o bearing and it bent.

So, sound like the pivot stud needs to be screwed into the bellhousing further? Would it make sense to go to a hydraulic setup if I have to pull the trans anyway? Are those better/easier to adjust?
