My clutch broke!!!!

Hi, So the other day when leaving my house i put my car in reverse but prior to that i noticed my clutch felt different, but thought nothing of it, them when i went to put my clutch to put it in drive i had the same feel in the clutch, got half way down still with plent of pressure them snap and it dropped to the floor! I have a 94 mustang GT with the 5.0 L w/ a T5 transmission swap! now the clutch is just sitting right on the floor! i've heard that my clutch didn't go out and that they think one of two things happened! either my cable broke! or the clutch and brake pedal broke! please tell me what you think! thanx, steven hess

I say the cable broke.
Were you having any noticiable problems that were coming on slowly?
stickie foot peddel or anything?

well the only thing that really came about was the i started to get a little more stiff and had a little play when the clutch was out, i'd say 1/2 inch to a full inch, but when i got in it this morning it felt totally different when i put it down but it still worked then i went to put it in first then soon as i got half way down it just dropped...

I say it could be the cable. But I'm thinking pressure plate, thats where my money would be.

well this morning i finally got in there to take a closer look at it and the end of the clutch pedal right before it enters the firewall i seen a munch of fraid wire and there is now nothing connecting the clutch to anything at the firewall what so ever! so what now?

with your vehicals infromation, go the parts store and they can take it from there. Call if ya want, they should be able to help you out and at least give you a ball park figuar as to what it will cost.

Your cable broke. You need a new one. Might as well upgrade to a firewall adjuster & quadrant with the new cable. Summit sells a kit.

thanx for the info!! everything is on order now! except i ordered the steeda adjustable clutch cable! is that a decent one?

Should be.

you will like the steeda quadrant and firewall adjuster. It replaces the self adjusting clutch quadrant which was the first thing to go on mine. holler if you run into any issues installing it.

will do, thanx everyone

well the cable is in... installing tomorrow... hope this fixes it!! "fingers crossed"
