Clutch pedal and spring wear....how does yours look?

habanero · 11-07-2009, 07:18 PM

Decided to replace my clutch pedal spring because of enough sag to keep the cruise control from working occasionally-
and opened up a small can of worms.

New and old parts comparison:

The spring looked like this:

Which made me wonder what the clutch pedal looked like.
Good thing I wondered....

It's a 96 with 205000 miles on it. That spring is a bear and a half to replace. The pedal, much easier.

I'm posting this up as food for thought.....

To me it was much easier to get rid of the problem by eliminating the stock spring and tiny plastic bushing and replace then with a simple factory brake pedal return spring. My combined wear was not quite that bad but bad enough.
