76 duster clutch pedal will come up 2-3 inches off the ground but not all the way

Start by checking the installed position of the fork, with the TO bearing touching the fingers. It should be more or less centered vertically in the window, and very near the forward edge of it.
If it's not, check to see that it is STRAIGHT from end to end, and IIRC over 12 inches long.

Next, make sure that your Z-bar is properly located and NOT moving laterally at all, during operation. Also, it should be parallel to the ground and at about 90* to the centerline of the vehicle.

Did you replace the TO bearing as a complete part pre-mounted on the carrier, and was it the same as the one you replaced?
