Got mine installed today. So easy to do. So much love now. Feels just like my DD truck.

Installed and test drove in the time of 20 minutes. Love the feel of it now I just have to find the right RPM to take off in when I'm at the strip

Hey, I don't know where you're getting these springs but have you checked out this place? Compression Springs - Custom Springs | Lee Spring

They have a spring on there that matches the stock one very closely (p/n LHC 177N 03M) as well as various others that would fit at reduced spring rates.

I'm still interested if you have any of yours left. The leespring place is kind of pricey for very small orders

I'm also interested in the spring and PMed.

What a great mod. Really have had a great chance to enjoy it all week.

Clutch Spring Pedal Play Problem Solved!!!
 
1 Attachment(s)
Two things, the new spring works like a charm and I found a way to take the play out!:ughdance:
If you look at the top bump stop for the clutch pedal assembly, you will see a bracket above where the white bump stop rests, housed in this bracket is a black square module with a black pin sticking out of it. In front of that black square module is a lock nut (see attached pic). I used a 14mm open head wrench (not an exact fit, but it worked) to loosen, once this is done, you can turn the black square module to protrude further down in the bracket. Once this is done tighten the nut back up, no more play. I will say that this is a royal pain in the @$$, not much room at all.

1. Find the top bump stop bracket, loosen the nut in front of the black square module.

2. Disconnect attached wire to prevent the wire from "bunching".

3. Turn black square module, (I believe clockwise) it took me 2 full turns to get the play out.

3. Depress clutch pedal and reset against bump stop to ensure play is gone.

4. Repeat step 2 if necessary.

5. Tighten nut.

6. Take her for a spin and enjoy!

Please see pic of bracket assembly, this will get you on your way.

actually, guy posted on 7/26/11 that he had ten left due to people flaking out. we're checking to see if those are still available or not.

I just ordered one from Fastenal (p/n 0166722). It's the right size and the spring rate is about 25% of stock for anyone who missed out on the buy
