EMPI 00-3168-0 Clutch Cable Shortening Kit - VW Dune Buggy & Sand Rail

EMPI Clutch Cable Shortening Kit (Heavy-Duty)

Standard clutch cables are often too long for custom-built Volkswagens, particularly those with shortened floor pans. This EMPI Clutch Cable Shortening Kit is engineered to handle the high-tension demands of the clutch system, allowing you to create a custom-length cable without the risk of slipping or cable failure.

Key Features:

• High-Tension Security: Designed specifically with a robust, heavy-duty housing to grip the thicker steel strands of a clutch cable under heavy pedal pressure.

• Builder's Essential: A mandatory component for shortened pan dune buggies, sand rails, and custom trikes where stock factory cable lengths are unusable.

• Clean Termination: Provides a secure, professional-grade end point that prevents the cable from fraying or unraveling after it has been cut to size.

• Universal Application: Works with standard air-cooled clutch cables, making it easy to adapt your linkage to any chassis configuration.

Specifications:

• Part Number: 00-3168-0

• Cable Type: Clutch Only (Heavy-Duty)

• Sold As: Individual Kit

Tech Tip: Because a clutch cable is under significant mechanical load, ensure the cable is fully seated within the shortening block before tightening the hardware. For a permanent, "set-it-and-forget-it" installation, we recommend using a small drop of high-strength thread locker on the set screws once your final cable length has been verified.
