I'm trying to install the aluminum clutch quadrant. I have the seat out to make it easier. I got the retaining pins out of both the factory quadrant and self adjuster. The quadrant and its spring are already off. The spring for the factory self adjusted is off so it rotates freely and slides on the shaft easily. The problem is, under my dash there is a metal bracket that is just barely not letting the adjuster come fully off the shaft. I got the pedal pushed all the way down, even pulled back the carpet and cut the floor insulation to let the pedal go down all the way to try and get clearance so the adjuster will come off. No luck. The vids online show them working on a car that appears to be stripped of everything under the dash. No mention of this spot welded bracket preventing the adjusted from coming off the shaft.
Now what? What do I have to do to get the plastic factory adjuster to clear the bracket and come off?
