Hey guys,
So Im new here, so be patient with me..lol. Ive had my Mastiff for 4 years now, I should have signed in here long ago...anyway. Im in the process of replacing my clutch cable. I think its going pretty well. But...I do have a couple of things Id like to clear up before I get my ass handed to me.
Ive got the new cable into the ball and ramp. Its greased to high hell and Ive replaced the gasket and cover. I just wanna verify something. I have the stem of the swivelling unit at dead bottom center with the ball and cable in it. Is that correct? I noticed at first with it at the far side of the cable entry hole, there wasnt much slack in the cable for replacing into the lever at the end of the job. So its at the 6 oclock position. Is this right. I dont wanna get it all put back and not have enough pull to disengage the plates.
Also.....at the lever. I havent gotten into it yet...but the eyelet that is on the lever side of the cable is too big to go into the hole. This may sound dumb....but do I take the lever housing apart? If so...can anyone briefly describe the process? I know I have to insert the new retaining pin through the eyelet...but how am I gonna get the whole assembly into the housing?
Thanks for any help.
