clutch cable wing nuts

HELP!!!!! It's 28 deg. and the wing nut on my clutch cable fell apart...Realy...Both wings broke off when I tried to adjust it with my bare hands....never mind the blood and sailor language....I need to find a source for a new one(or more)...

Lay off the Wheaties! They're 95 cents each at CIP1.com - search for part # VWC-131-721-349. You sure your cable hasn't stretched and and you ran out of threaded portion?

Leon thanks for your recent help. What signs did you have that you needed to adjust the cable?

Leon: You can get stuff much faster from here:

I was about to swap out the header system on the car.....Now I get to pay $1.00 for a wing nut and $12.00 shipping if I'm lucky and the vendor does not have a MINUM....Not to mention the cable wants to pass thru the header tube.....Now I get to modify the linkage....

FUN...FUN...FUN, where does it end....I know, chasing Lane Anderson into Pa. next spring....

Bill D. Thanks for the lead into PEEK PERF. Order placed.... let's hope I can get this monster back together properly....

Hell, I don't expect it to end next Spring. This is gonna last for years (knock wood).

Keep the faith, Leon. Those guys at Peek are terrific.
I'm kind of surprised you didn't go tromping through a junkyard, though. That might have been a quick fix.

That little nut is one of the most in demand parts at any VW junk yard, right up there with heater duct connectors....

Oscar,...I drive a Spyder, this means changing any thing can develope into major rework as you now have an engine between you and the gear box....Just finished modifing the pivot arm that reverses the actuation between the cable and the clutch actuator shaft....

Now that things are more tranquil...all I have to do is wait for the cable nut(s).....

Hope yours is running well....Merry HoHo & Happy N.Y.

THE WING NUTS ARE HERE...THE WING NUTS ARE HERE...I'm saved....Bless the folks at Peek Perf, each and every one....Not to mention the above SOC members...

Thanks to all ...Leon C.

HO-HO-HO...

And so, Virginia, Christmas finally comes to Gainsville, Georgia.

Merry Christmas to all, and God Bless us, every one!!
