Can you get these?

I've got a fairly heavy clutch, I'm concerned about snapping cables. Does anywhere make them with stronger wire?

carry a spare i n the boot and some string and 2x10mm spanners and they can be changed in about 10 mins

Try Practical Classics Alex; IIRC there should be a couple of adverts in there.

Mine was going the same I found a crack in the peddle box so wen u press the clutch the peddle box was moveing too. It be worth checking urs .

What clutch have you got Alex? Check there's a bit of grease on the clutch arm too, they sometimes bind on the box housing

I keep my cable lubed (silicone is good and doesn't run out too quickly) as Pete says just carry a spare and a few 10mm spanners.

My pedal box is hanging in there, will strip it out in winter and weld it up.

Could get a hydraulic clutch? Only problem is mounting a master cylinder for the clutch.
