I was touring around the back roads and blammo!! Bad noises and my clutch peddle went to the floor. Got out and looked, found bolts backed out of the CV and when it let go, it grabbed the clutch cable and ripped it out. headbang.gif

pray.gif I love leatherman!

I got 3 out 4 bent bolts back in and pulled a roller off of the rear trunk spring along with an exhuast nut. Put the stackup on the mangled and not quite broken cable and Streached it as far as I could. Then I fired it up in gear (clutch kinda worked) and drove 40 miles home. driving.gif

I couldnt beleive it worked.

I'm trying to get pics on as soon as I can.
