cable actuated clutch

[beast]

I was never satisified with the hydraulic master/slave clutch set up, so I fabricated and installed my own version of cable actuation. Initially, I ran the long 3-finger pressure plate and toploader 4-speed. Later converted to TKO600 and diaphram pressure plate. I encountered problems with the hydraulic system in both applications. Mechanical alignment was good, but the Wilwood master and slave would develop leaks after a short time in operation. I am really pleased with the cable actuated clutch thus far. It requires about the same operating pedal pressure as the hydraulic set up. I installed the same system in my wifes Falcon in 2004, have driven many miles, and never had to adjust the cable or perform any maintenance. I do not have a lot of miles on the new Cobra installation yet, but will have it fully proven out by this years Homecoming. Here's a few pics to show you my installation.Gary
