well it has gotten to the point to where i cant shift. I have a
Billet Triple Hook Quadrant and its on the middle setting, im about a 1/4 of a inch from getting it to pop in the 3rd setting.I beleive it has the stock cable in there so theres no way to adjust that any. im not sure what brand the quadrant is. any ideas on how to get this to work agian help me. Other then the car wanting to take off when you start the clutch works fine.is there a way to get some slack in the cable to get it on that 3rd setting?

No way of getting any more slack on a stock cable..

will the Steeda Adjustable Clutch Cable work with any Quadrant?

cliffyk

Yes, however I have read many posts where people feel the OEM cable is superior to any aftermarket cable--you need a firewall adjuster...

firewall adjuster on my stock cable?

cliffyk

[/align][/align]Yup, when you installed the aftermarket quadrant you lostall ability to adjust the cable freeplay provided by the OEM quadrant and spring-loaded ratchet adjusting mechanism--leaving only the 3 steps of the quadrant (which are not really for adjusting the cable at all). So, you need some way to adjust it; either an adjustable cable, or a firewall adjuster.[/align][/align]In Steeda's latest catalog they make mention of an "improved" 99-04 clutch cable, however after reading thenumerous postingsreporting problems with aftermarket cables I decided to go with a firewall adjuster and the OEM cable (I have UPR's 3-hook quadrant and f/w adjuster).[/align]

is this about the best deal? this will do the trick

cliffyk

It will work, one thing though--youwill have to trim/modify the firewall bushing on the OEM cable to fit the adjuster. This is true for all adjusters and all cables, it only requires a utility knife, dremel tool, or some other way to remove some plastic fins/etc. and is not a big deal.[/align][/align]Steeda includes instructions on how to do this in their kits but it's quite intuitive...[/align]
