also if you notice in here some of my posts are actual questions for more imput on something i dont quite understand. i do appreciate your imput as well and correction if im wrong. but dont bash me, correct me. im here to educate on what i know and get educated on what i dont know.
thank ahead of time.

im looking at new oem's online and it looks nothing like mine.
mine has a threaded bolt through the clutch form with an eyelet on the threaded bolt where the cable hooks on to.....does anyone elses look like this?
you may want to disregard my advice until someone can verify if this is what its supposed to look like.

Man, that's just a little snobbish. Just because someone hasn't been doing this for a living for the last 20 years doesn't mean that they can't offer assistance with something that they have dealt with. I didn't see a 20 year veteran step up to the plate when this guy asked the question the first time. If I see someone in need, I'm going to offer what limited assistance that I can offer, if it something that I'm reasonably knowledgeable, or a problem that I have already dealt with. It's just the right thing to do. Fivepointohh didn't offer flawed advice, he just worded one thing in a way that was a little confusing. At that point, a veteran could say "Oh hey, what he meant was this" and that's it, problem solved. There is no need to berate someone and tell them they have no business helping anyone. It would be totally understandable, if he were purposely giving totally false information just to be an a-hole. I think very few of us here are capable of taking a car apart and putting it back together blindfolded, but everyone has something they can help with, and that's why it's a community, and not a one man show.
Hey, I'm far from perfect...I enjoy sharing what I know and working within those limits! ...that's all....I enjoy working as a team, always have! best of luck...Tim
