Fitting clutch cable
thepie - February 28th, 2015 at 09:12 AM

Hi all , just removed pedal cluster to paint floor pan and having a nightmare trying to get it back to together , is there a easy way to get to keep clutch cable on ? It keeps falling off , also should there be a wing nut on other end?
Cheers Dave

drill a little hole in the hook and use a split pin ,

You keep the cable on the pedal hook by not allowing the pedal to fall rearward, keeping it upright or fwd only it will stay on the hook.
Yes, a wing nut is usually fitted, although factory fittment was a pair of jamb nuts, 14 and 11mm spanner hex

My trick is to use a thick rubber band to keep the cable on the pedal hook. The pedal can flop around while you get the nuts/wingnut on down the back.
