ok, well the stock piece can be adjusted. i had to do it to mine too, what you do it... slide the seat back and get under the dashboard, then push the clutch in, youll see the quadrant, which is up above between the break and gas pedal ibelieve, you ll see it move w. the clutch pedal... on the end of it is a little hook... push in the pedal and then find a way to hold that hook in place, i used the *** end of a knife, but use w.e u got, donest matter. then with it held in place, pull the clutch pedal up slowly, youll hear a click... try going w. just 1 click, and drive it and see how it works out for u... if not try 2 clicks... if that doesnt work then its not your cable. o and also, if you go over board and click to many times you can just pull up on the pedal to reset it all.

trust me, try what i said... it should help.. prob would be smart to get a new quadrant (i suggest steeda, thats whats on my to buy list), but for now that will help the prob.

Get a new Quad there not much and its easy to do as long as your not over 6foot.. the taller you are the harder it is to manueverby the seat
