Adjustment??

jonnotch · April 20th, 2008, 09:52 PM

I bought a upr firewall adjuster and I have maximum motorsports clutch quadrant. So I need to buy a stock OEM cable. I looked at them and there is an adjuster on teh end how does that work with a fire wall adjuster? Is there just two points of adjustment?

Thanks

Jon

Yes with that one you would have two points of adjustment, but there is another cable that is non adjustable(it looks like a metal mushroom at the end) so you could get that one so you won't have to mess around under the car.

Does ford sell this cable or do I have to call around?

They might but I got mine from 50resto but it also came with a clutch fork.

I set my firewall adjuster to mid way. Then I adjusted my cable to take the slack out. Setting my firewall adjuster to center gave me room to adjust the pedal up or down to get the right height without having to crawl under the car again. I just adjusted it with the firewall adjuster to where it started grabbing a little less than half way to the top. Any closer to the top and you take a chance on the clutch not engaging all the way. Supposedly the stock cable is stronger than the adjustable one, or at least it doesn't stretch like the adjustable has been said to do. I have the adjustable one with no problems yet.
