 The part about the cable seeming too short is a bit of a mystery in itself. I'm guesing your clutch fork is out of position. What about the cable mount bracket itself- is that in the right spot?

On all the ones I've seen, the cable is always on the long side. I always curse that they make them too long since it takes longer to adjust down. I have about 2 inches of threaded cable sticking out at the clutch fork end on my JH and that's what I've seen on other JHs.

The throw out bearing will never ride on the pressure plate at rest, only the clutch pedal will engage it. With the return spring removed, you should never need to compress anything to attach the cable.
