Hey guys, I finally bought my new clutch and am going to install it coming up soon. Before I do so, I wanted to let a few of you chime in on what Quadrant and Firewall Adjusters you run?

I've been told that as far as a firewall adjuster, its fiore or I'm an idiot? The issue is I can't find just a Fiore FWA. It comes with their quadrant as well. I've heard others say that MM's FWA as well as Steeda's Adjusters are both good as well. I'm just looking to see if anyone has had any issues with either of those companies? Any information on the Firewall Adjuster and Quadrant is appreciated. I don't feel like re-installing a second one cause the first one sucked..

Ive got MMs quadrant because it has the same radius the stock quadrant has. Most other companies change the radius and it makes the pedal effort a little harder.

I'm running JEGS FWA, very very nice piece for the price, I used to run the SR performance which was junk. I also have Steeda's adjustable cable but you might not need that.

One thing I would recommend doing, and costs no more than $5, is making you're own clutch free play eliminator. How to make your own clutch freeplay kit - Mustang Evolution

Makes the clutch pedal feel awesome and not have the dead spot of engagement which typically happens with aftermarket quadrants.

Another recommendation is to use MM's clutch pedal height adjuster, this allows you to adjust the pedal's height so that its the same as the brake pedal Clutch Pedal Height Adjuster, 1994-04

I've been hearing good things about Steeda. Any issues with the Adjusters? Like it popping out of place, etc? Is it easy to turn?

Did you go with the triple hook quadrant? Is your FWA pretty easy to turn? Does it hold up well once you got it set in?

I have the upr triple hook, stock clutch cable, upr firewall adjuster. The upr adjuster sucks imo, it is the double lock but with the bolts in it to go to the firewall you can't lock it up like they want you to.

I'd get the one with the locking thing in the middle if I were to do it again, but I got mine used cheap so.

I've heard nothing but amazing things as far as the MM quadrant is concerned. I just want to make sure that I get a good Firewall Adjuster to go with it. It's not like it's a huge amount of money, but I don't feel like doing the job over again.

How well do you guys like the MM firewall adjuster? Easy to turn? I suppose it holds up well since all of you are saying it's awesome. I was thinking of doing the Microclick one.

The MM adjuster will work just fine, but the added comfort of the click lock is nice. I'm running the MM Quadrant, the best design, and the steeda adjuster, for the click.
