Is there an adjustment on a clutch?
Yes there is an adjustment. Between the frame and the bellhousing on the drivers side there's an adjustment rod going to the clutch arm coming out of the side of the bellhousing. Lengthen the rod so that the clutch will take sooner. Be careful not to adjust it too much or you will wear out the throw out bearing inside prematurely. Leave it so there is some free play in the pedal.

Why does my shift sound like a grinding sound?
If you are getting a grinding sound when you shift, slow your shifts down. This a heavy duty truck transmission, not a race car. Shift in two distinct phases, phase one disengages the clutch from its current a gear, now pause for about half a heart beat, phase two moves it into the new gear. The pause is short, but important. It allows the synchros time to align.

Is a high biting point on a JK clutch normal?
the high biting point is completely normal on the JK. That doesn't indicate whether it's worn or not. As the friction material wears, it will adjust so the bite point doesn't change. I believe the warranty only covers the clutch for 1year/12k miles.
