Default Clutch Pedal Help!!!

I have a 99 V6 Stock Mustang and the clutch pedal has been raddling for around 4-5 months now. The clutch itself I dont feel is bad, though it does catch very high it has never slipped. But I was looking for advice on how to correct this annoying raddling sound in my clutch pedal?

It happens mainly when I switch gears and when Im in gear and apply the brakes(usually 30mph and lower speeds). Thanks for the help.

I'm not quite sure if your year is included but Ford has TSB's for clutch pedal vibration. Check the Recalls and TSB section. I was looking for something else the other day and I saw the clutch pedal one.

The noise comes from my actual clutch pedal itself. It vibrates or raddles. And when I push up on the clutch pedal softly it will stop the noise, obviously because I stopped the vibration.

Have you looked under the dash to see what you can see. Not sure if there is a replacable bushing for it or not. Have a look though.

I know...it is vibrating from the clutch linkage. If it's what I think it is, there is a balance weight that Ford can install on the clutch fork on the tranny to dampen the vibration. Check with engine rpm....you may notice it better.

I just went to Ford and they didnt actually look/inspect it but they said it is probably the bushing. And that the bushing is only like $5 but labor to replace it is around $300!!!
