Can anyone tell me where the clutch cable bolts to? (ya know that little bracket on it)

Will my driveshaft (aod) work with it? Any help is greatly appreciated.

the clutch cable? um it bolts to the clutch fork and then that little weirdo bracket thing goes anywhere u can place it on the chassis on the drivers side. u can probably get it to go into the wheel well. just dont use a long screw.

The stock driveshaft will work, AOD or T5 are the same.

the shafts are the same, but the aod yoke has a harmonic balancer on it that adds about an inch to the overall length. That inch was just enough to make it not fit with our conversion. So far, we seem to be the only ones to ever have this problem though.

there is a specific place for that bracket. The notch on the bracket fits into the wheelwell as mentioned, then is screwed into the wheelwell.
