MK Pedal Box / Clutch Cable

I have just snapped my clutch cable. At the minute I have been using a mountain bike brake cable, and it looks like it has been rubbing on the edge of the tube welded into the footwell.

Is the Indy designed to use a standard Sierra clutch cable?

Am going to try to modify a car one, hoping that the rubber / plastic section at the end fits down the tube and will stop the chaffing!


Thanks

Mike

I have a Capri one that looks the same as what i used on both my Pinto Indy's. The ends are the same but you can get them in 5 different lengths so i suggest going to your local motorfactors with the cable you have and see what he's got that will work.

I've used a Capri clutch cable too - the plastic end fits neatly inside the metal tube on the footwell. It also has an integral threaded adjuster which makes setting up a doddle. Try looking through the Burton Power website for ideas.

Right, I got the cable today, but how did you guys connect it to the pedal?

Cheers
