i couldnt get mine off without ripping it to shreds because of the spring. just upgrade your clutch linkage....its the perfect time since your old one broke.

yea i would be and will be doing an upgrade, but i dont have the money right now, just spend 250 thru summit, im tight till next check now... i happen to have another stock one laying around that im going to use. the problem im running into is that there is nowhere for the clutchpedal to go to have room for that piece to slide off of its pin... wtf guys.... and idc if it comes off all ****ed up, i have another im putting on, lol. and i can see tha the teeth on it are striped so just leaving it and swaping the quadrant would be pointless

well i removed my drivers seat so I cna lay on my back and see everything. Idk if you have done that already , but when your down there looking up at the quadrant, try hitting the clutch pedal up and down with your hand and watch where it is pivoting. you should be able to see where its exactly hooked, and go from there.
