You found out the same thing I did: the stock cable won't work with a firewall adjuster and single hook quadrant.. .

You have two choices:
1.) Buy a quadrant with 2 or more hooks http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FMS-M-7583-A/ $38.00
Or http://www.uprproducts.com/79-93-mustang-drivetrain.html
2.) Buy a Ford Adjustable cable. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FMS-M-7553-C302/ $42.00
Don't be afraid of the Ford adjustable cable, its the same quality as the stock cable. I have used them for years and not had any problems.

Before you run out and buy more stuff...

Do you have the FW adjuster turned all the way into the firewall? Have you tried rerouting the cable a couple of different ways to see if you get more of the tail out of the cable at the TOB end?

I'm asking these questions because when I purchased and installed my MM cable, adjuster, and quadrant, I had to rearrange the cable a couple of times to get it right. The MM kit is also single hook.

Once I got it hooked at both ends, I adjusted it from the FW (of course).
