Step 1) Underneath the dash on the driver side of the vehicle you will find the cable linkage quadrant.
Disconnect the factory cable from this quadrant. Remove the quadrant by removing the pivot screw and
nut. Install the McLeod quadrant from the kit along with the white nylon spacer and tighten the pivot nut
and bolt. See Figure 2

Step 2) Disconnect the factory clutch release cable from the bell housing area and remove.

Step 3) Remove the factory clutch cable grommet from the firewall. Place the McLeod firewall adjuster
base onto the firewall, with the flat edge against the body seam, and mark the mounting holes. Rotate the
McLeod firewall adjuster to be certain the adjusting screw will be able to protrude into the factory clutch
cable hole in the firewall. The adjuster will click every 90 degrees of rotation. Using the supplied drill bit,
drill 3 or 4 holes through the firewall. Install the McLeod firewall adjuster into position and fasten with
the supplied screws. Screw the adjuster all the way into the base. See Figure 3

Step 4) Be sure the lock nut on the bullet nose end of the McLeod master cylinder is tight against the
cable adapter. Install the McLeod master cylinder assembly cable through the McLeod firewall adjuster
and connect it under the dash to the McLeod quadrant. Fig 4
