Title: Clutch Cable for red 6 and 4 speed manual box.
Post by: Hashman on March 15, 2012, 05:35:57 PM

Hi everyone. As you may know the clutch cable snapped on my 78 cf270. I managed to get one through a member here 2 years ago when it happened last time. Its lasted two years but now i need a new one. I was wondering if this...

would be suitable? The connectors on the ends are the same but im wondering about length? If not does anyone know where I can get one or does anyone have a spare they would like to sell? Thanks in advance.. Dave 0407 554 292

I don't think they are long enough.

I blew a couple a while ago, and I think I got one from ACW Trucks (http://www.acwbedford.com.au/) and a
had another one done somewhere off cantebry road in Kilsyth I think.

I've said it before look at the primary cause of the failure and fix that, then the cables should last forever.

Problems can be Cracked fire wall or worn shifting arm - have a look in the engine/trans section there I explain it in more detail.
