he asked if the clutch is "dragging" - not disengaging completly.
does it grind going into reverse? if not, it isn't dragging.
then you're described a mechanical hang up somewhere. the pressure plate, the tube the release/throwout bearing rides on, the clutch fork pivot, the slave cyl bore & piston, master cyl bore & piston, or the pedal linkage.
4 to 7mm at the fork is way too much play, and that is ONLY IF this things design has an adjustable rod or stop on the clutch fork & slave cylinder. does it have that adjustment there? if it doesn't have an adjustable stop, there will be almost ZERO clearance.
changing the rod length on non-adjustable designs will not do anything to help you. the slave piston stops where ever the pressure plate pushes it to, and that makes it self-adjusting.
the only time to change rod length is if the slave piston bottoms out with less then zero free play, or the slave piston is ready to pop out. thats all.
the pedal push rod is adjusted for free play and to let the piston return enough to vent to the reservoir.
