jono Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 just thinking have never seen anyone put up a pic of the differences between the pedal boxes of the EA82 and EA81. It has been said that an alternative to modifying an EA81 pedal box to take EA82 clutch cable when doing a 4WD 5MT conversion, is to 'just' fit an EA82 pdal box. It looks like a 120mm x 60 mm piece of flat plate will make a nice adaptor, coupla bolts .... the accy pedal also have different ends for the cable and from what I recall, the accy pedal needs a few bend mods. I have already swapped the EA81 acc pedal on to the EA82 pedal box, hoping for a shortcut. This pedal box the rusty one is the EA82 RX version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uberoo Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 why would you need an EA82 clutch cable in the first place?I havent needed one on my 5 speed swaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted January 4, 2015 Author Share Posted January 4, 2015 Hmmm....good question..... I read it on a forum .so did what was suggested most of the way along. There is also a difference between your LHD and our RHD clutch cable lengths. When we fit the central forked hole 5 speeds our RHD cables won't stretch further, whereas your cables, well, don't have to travel further to go to work, they travel less. And this ute is getting an EA82T, flywheel, clutch and gearbox eventually. I also like the EA82 clutch cables mounting methods over an EA81, bit harsh saying that, as only had to replace one old EA81 clutch cable in over 490,000km in Subarus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
