Default Clutch Cable replacement

I just replaced my clutch cable and for some reason the clutch is way easier to push in than before. I replaced it with the same cable from Ford Racing.

I'm wondering if I did anything wrong or if maybe I could damage something. It shifts gears fine and everything.

^ truth, if your clutch fully engages and disengages plus you checked all your connections to make sure they're secure, how would something be wrong?

Maybe your old cable just needed a little lube.
