My clutch is abnormally hard to push down for some reason. I don't know if i need a new clutch kit or what. Any ideas?

mine was and the cable was binding. New cable and quadrant should fix it right up!
It was so hard to push that I found out that it was breaking through the firewall.

OK, i was also told there was a setting that u can tighten or loosen to change the smootheness of your clutch. Is that true?

I am not aware of any setting like that. They make adjustment mechanisms (like a firewall adjuster or adjustable cable) that you can tighten or loosen to make the clutch grab in different locations. But nothing to make it smoother alone
OK, cool.
Do you know where i can learn further about a new cable quadrant or learn how to check for a bad cable routing?

David is 5 Spd GT (posted above on your thread). He is very knowledgable with this stuff and has some nice write ups.modifiedstang said:
Jeremy is V8 Only. In his sig he has a link to his website which has a good article on clutch dynamics.
Good luck.

Yeah as JT pointed out...v8only (Jeremy) has a picture he will post for you where it shows the proper cable routing and he has tried a couple quadrants out. I believe he likes the UPR 3 hook quadrant (more adjustability). I am happy with my Steeda 2 hook quadrant...
Try PMing him...do a search for his name below

Good Luck!
