I'm doing the ape install and having trouble with the clutch cable,I even checked out the thread about installing. I am having trouble getting the clutch cable out of the tranny cover any ideas? Not sure how it suppose to come out without messing something up.

gotta unscrew it, it's threaded

 

Yeah I saw that thread it's helped a lot. Are you saying the piece in side the hole has to unscrew in order to get the cable out?

I don't know how those guys were able to get the cable out without taking the tranny cover off,no way.

 

it screws out. takes a 9/16 or 5/8 wrench. you'll need the rubber o-ring off of the stock cable also. you should be able to see it after you unscrew the cable from the side cover.

 

RTFM

 

Got it,somehow I don't know how that part broke off inside there,I'll take a pic in a bit and show you. Thanks guys appreciate it.
Freakin weird it would break I wonder how long it's been broke.

 

The ferrules must break pretty easily. I broke one installing a cable. I have seen several other posts about them breaking as well.

 

I just take my cover off and put a wrench on the outer nut for the cable and just turn the cover round and round till it's out. Done it a couple of times already.

 

I just put new bars and controls on my '94 and didnt take the cover off at all.. In fact, I pulled(not easy) the cable out of the clutch lever housing by hand (really need another set of hands for help). It can be done w/o taking the cable off if you wanted to.
