Great video, I just ordered a clutch cable and new gas pedal from you guys
Thankyou for the Vedio Bro
Our pleasure!
such useful information ! your video really helped me through the process of changing my clutch cable .. cheers guys
Thank you for these videos I’m working on a SandRail
What type of grease is used for the brake pedal push rod and such? Great video! Very helpful on my 61
Any grease would work, we happen to have some CV joint grease handy so it's our go to lately.
Exelente video. solo falto engrasar los cables ??
Si ves que el cable viejo salió con mucha grasa, entonces no necesitarás agregar grasa. De lo contrario, todo lo que se necesita es una capa ligera.
Ive got a dunebuggy that’s shortened 3 inches. Could you make a video on how to install a cable shortening kit . Thank you
When we get the right project car, absolutely. In the meantime, the cable shortening kits are pretty simple to install. With the exception of the clutch cable kit, the cable ends are cut off and a new end is slid over the cable and held in place with a set screw. For the clutch cable, the end is cut off, the cable is routed through the new end and a nut is threaded down to hold the cable in place.
Hey that you Jbug
I'm experiencing a hard shudder in reverse on any grade. Could that be a bowden tube adjustment?
It could be, but if it is only in reverse, I would first check the cable adjustment and go from there.
@@Sam_Mebane Front trans mount is toast everything is coming and and getting refreshed. Thanks for your reply.
Does rhe accelerator cable tube need to be attached to anything or does it just hang there
It just "hangs" there, when it is run through the fan shroud tube, it sits between it and the chassis.
What exactly is the point of that roller accelerator pedal?
In 1957 and older Beetles, the roller pedal was stock. Some people like the vintage look and simplicity of the design. Others like the smooth, albeit odd operation compared to the metal pedal. Either way, it just comes down to personal preference.
Thanks, although since I asked I had found most of that out on my own. Since you are answering questions, what is the part number on your website for that heavy duty accelerator cable?
All the parts we used in the video can be found in the video description, although it looks like we missed that one. The heavy duty accelerator cable we used for this installation can be found here: www.jbugs.com/product/4860-7.html
Is there something holding the clutch cable tube to the chassis clutch tube? I can't seem to disconnect mine.
There is no mechanical part holding the tube in place other than the bracket at the transmission. Once the bracket is removed, gravity, tension, grease, dirt, road grime, rust, etc. are the only things holding the tube in place. A good tug is usually required to break the tube free of the chassis.
@@JBugsVWParts Never seen rear disc brakes on a bug before, fancy pants, factory never did those afaik!
Is removing the engine really necessary?
No, not at all.
My clutch pedal falls to the ground and doesn’t return after I replaced my cable
If the cable is attached to the arm on the transmission, then chances are the cross shaft arms inside the bellhousing have broken off. That, and the spring on the cross shaft is broken.
