Default Build Thread-Brandon's 01 Bullitt

Had my first "break" down with the car yesterday afternoon. Started noticing the clutch catching lower to the floor than normal yesterday morning and that when I went to shift to fifth I had difficulty like the clutch wasn't disengaging. Heading to a local meet I stopped at a light and went to take off and had no clutch. Pushed it out of the highway and pulled the inspection cover and found the cable had frayed. $80 later and shes back on the road. Parking lot repair ftw

Another reason why I love having an auto . Glad it wasn't anything serious and it was an easy fix.

Damn dude! I wish I would have known. I have two cables and I could have sent you one! I need to replace mine but adjusting it seems like a p.i.t.a

Still would rather be shifting my own gears . But thanks. I was surprised at how easy it was to replace.
I did lose the use of my firewall adjuster though with the new cable.

I needed one ASAP so this was my only option.

Adjusting it isn't bad. Loosen the lock nut and tighten or loosen it to where you want it.

Goodness... I ran them occasionally but they never seemed to get too hot. I hope that doesn't happen with my cobra foggies. That shit is $$

One of them had a hole when I got it. Didn't bother me none cause they still worked fine. Then I put HIDs in them and both got a hole. I'd still be running them if the plastic that dripped down wasn't touching the bulb. I'm gonna get some new clear ones and run green hids since the bulb or ballast burnt out on my current set.
