I want to open up the center tunnel to inspect and repair the broken clutch cable tube. It has broken away and that has contributed to the clutch cable fork that attaches to the pedal bending and breaking during my last track day.

When the tube breaks, the cable pulls from an angle and creates uneven stress on the fork.
Also, a broken tube make it difficult to properly adjust the clutch.

I would like to see a picture showing an access hole above the tube location.

thanks

cutting the center tunnel for access is a hack job (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

seriously, you only need to drill out the spot welds on the side of the tunnel and re-weld....

I think Jeff Bowlsby posted pictures of the repair I did on his Grasshopper car.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) that's what I did. pull the clutch and throttle cable before you weld, you'll be sorry if lyou don't.

Ask me how I know!
