Reply to "Clutch Free Pedal"

After being in there for more than 30 years it seems like I won't be getting much cable stretch. Even though it has been a long time, only a bit over 6000 miles.

While working on the longer clutch lever I noticed I didn't have the required kink or bow in the Bowden tube. It just came straight from the tunnel to the bracket on the trans.

When I added washers at the bracket, it bowed out to the side instead of downward. That left the cable still rubbing on the top of the Bowden tube where it exited. When I pushed the Bowen tube kink sideways so it bulged downward the cable moved to the center of the tube outlet. All of this was after I slotted the holes in the trans. bracket and rotated it.

So, I made a piece I could attach to the ground stud on the frame horn that will hold the Bowden tube kink in the proper position.
