I have less than 10k miles on new clutch, pressure plate, tob, supposedly new clutch arm. I had the car on the lift with the engine running and inspection cover off and the clutch arm is rattling bad. the tob looks to be spinning true. I have to put a good amount of arm on it to keep it from rattling. When in the car if i press the clutch 1" itll stop as well. Anyone experience this? all i can conclude is that the pivot ball is backing out? Any ideas?

the retainers that hold the TOB in place could be bent or worn. What kind of clutch is it?

How much free play is there in the pedal?

Its a "oem" LUK clutch. about 1/2" the cable does need to be replaced.

usually you replace it when you do the clutch depending on the miles. but still shouldnt be causing the chatter

Cause I know it needs to be done, I'm going to order HD adjustable cable, firewall adjuster and quadrant.

get the adjuster and quadrant but the stock cable is actually better than most cables out there so i would get a stock replacement.

I was looking at the UPR HD one. A OEM Ford one would be better?
