Clutch Adjustment ARM

289 · 09-26-2003, 07:09 AM

My Clutch adjustment has worn out in my 88 LX 5.0. I think the teeth are worn away so when I push the clutch it goes in alittle then BANG and it drops to the floor. Where can you find one of these adjustment thingys to replace mine thanks.

Your best bet would be to relace the quadrant with a solid one and put a firewall adjuster on. Check out http://www.uprproducts.com. If you want that stock piece you have to go to Ford

89 GT Mustang We have replaced the clutch linkage with a new one .
When we push in the clutch with our foot it feels normal and returns like normal. However, with the motor running we put it in gear and get no response as if the throw out bearing is NOT engaging the clutch fingers. From pictures I understand that there is pivot on the opposite side. Is possible the pivot is not connected? Or have the clutch fingers disappeared and I need to drop the hole thing and get a new clutch?
