Clutch Switch
What kind of setup are you stick guys using for a clutch switch to control 2 step? I never had a switch on the clutch just button on shifter. Pics would be nice.
Thanks, Rod

Re: Clutch Switch
I use a Biondo switch working off the Z bar. It allows you to dial it in so it releases just where you want it to!

Re: Clutch Switch
Don's setup looks pretty nice.
I may have to try that on my next clutch job ! I've used the Jerry Bickel switch in the past which is a very heavy duty switch with molded in leads and an adjustable arm . they also have a universal mounting bracket for it.

Re: Clutch Switch
What is the issue with a switch on the shifter in Stock.
I believe the SS people are allowed one on their shifter. Terry K |

Thanks for the replies guys. I am exploring options on the set up. I assume that both those switches have to be adjusted every time the clutch is adjusted correct? Is one more user friendly than the other? I have figured out how to use 2 relays to lock the line lock and 2 step together just working on clutch switch configuration and location for ease of use.

I've put these on a number of stick cars for guys. Fab a mounting bracket and a tab on the pedal to actuate it. Infinitely adjustable. Guys like them fine. |

Re: Clutch Switch
Rod, I use the Biondo switch. I drilled a hole in my clutch pedal and the switch comes through the hole! When my foot is on the clutch it is activated! Works fine!

Re: Clutch Switch
Rod,
I use an OMRON switch P/N D4C-1620 (actuated by the clutch fork). It looks very similar to the Jerry Bickel switch, but it can be found on ebay for ~$15 new. Tim |
