Car has no cylinder sleeve know anything clutch cable goes from quandary under the dash outside the firewall to the fender well underneath straight to the fork and that's it

when this happen I was in Georgia I drove it on down into Florida 300 more miles in 5th gear miles in 5th gear

I'm thinking it's the adjuster quandrant because I drove it for a hundred more miles if the clutch was shot surely I would have not made it 400 miles and I checked my clutch cable under the dash and it is loose and I already have taken out the quandary it in Nepal

OK how do I change out the plastic quandrant that spring loaded to the metal quandrant that has no spring how do I put that quandrant on with that half inch of space behind the quandrant what do I put in the back of it to make up for the space of the spring

Yes yesterday I just grabbed the clutch kit put the car 4 foot in the air setback drink a 12-pack going to get on it this morning thanks for the help brother really appreciate it

Oh one more thing the front seal is leaking really bad got oil dripping out of the bellhousing LOL nice greasy clutch so changing that as well
