    Thanks for all the help bud....I would probably still be breaking sh*t instead of fixing it if you didn't show up.

    So I just replaced my clutch. I made sure to bleed it and the pedal still feels soft and I am getting a very slight throw out bearing cherp when the pedal is all the way out. When I press it in just a bit it goes a way. Do I just need to keep adjusting everything?

    Anyone have any ideas to fix, or recommend a new one that's not to pricey?

    Edit: I also changed out my battery cables today, Toyota really goes hardcore with the black electrical tape on the wires, it was like fort knox on that bitch

    I hope I'm doing this right, this is my first post.

    That happened to mine. I drilled a hole through the plastic on the same side as the original clip and that eventually broke as well. Today I drilled a hole on the other side but who knows how long that will last. Eventually I'll just get a new one.
