Well its broke agian.........lol. I left work to go on lunch, was driving away from a stop light, went to shift in to 2nd and the clutch pedal fell to the floor and wouldnt come back up.... I thought i stapped another clutch cable but that would have been to easy.... I jacked the car up to see whats going on and the clutch fork is just flopping on its pivot ball.... there is no tension on it what so ever with the cable disconnected..... I dont know what normal puts tension on the clutch fork but i remember from the 5 speed trans that there was always tension even with the clutch cable off...... I think the throwout bearing might have took a crappp. it has been screaming at me for about 6 months now..... I tryed to get ahold of xtreme but they wont answer the phone... Talk to TJ he thinks they arer braking in the Engine ong anthonys car...the yellow and black one on there busniess card.... hope it something STUPID!!!

well come to find out its the cable........lol the covering seperated....I was thinking it might be the pressure plate (thats what joe told me) but I dont see how i could brake a CenterForce Dual Friction clutch with no major mods... I took the clutch cable out an notice it damn near blow up right at the firewall ajuster.... the cable it sellf is fine but the houing is a mess... I still cant figure out way the clutch fork is still so loose though... Im going up to fresno tomorrow to get a new clutch cable from the dealer and we will see what happens......
