So i just replaced my clutch on my '93 this weekend and i had a concern about the clutch grabbing point. Before i replaced my clutch it would begin to grab 2-3 inches from the floorboard, now that i have a brand new stock clutch in, it doesn't even think about grabbing until just about 3/4 of the way to the top and fully engages as i let my foot off completely; it grabs great and no slipping, but is this normal, and yes the cable is adjusted.

When I replaced mine, it did the same thing. It's annoying as **** to master one clutch, then have to relearn with a new one, but you'll get used to it.

I had another question while im on here, it has always done it and its always drove me nuts, and it still does it, whenever i push the clutch pedal in after 4000 rpm i get what sounds like something grinding in the cable, and the cable is not even a year old. anyone have any ideas??
