hi all just a quicky does anyone know if there is a difference in length in clutch cable sizes between very early sj's and later ones cheers

I very much doubt it...bought a Vit clutch cable the other day and it was identical to an SJ one. Think Suzuki try to save money as much as possible, so any cable should fit.

As all the engines and gearboxes on them are the same throughout production i imagine all clutch cables are the same.

cheers guys so if its not the clutch cable I wondered if anyone had any other ideas on whats wrong ...I recently did a 5 speed conversion on my 410 it all went ok apart from the thrust bearing makes a right racket until you push down the clutch I replaced the clutch and the thrust bearing but its still the same ive adjusted the clutch cable one way you get gears but the thrust bearing makes the noise adjust it the other way no noise but no gears really stuck now for an answer anyone have any ideas cheers

Clutch plate in the right way?

deffo check the clutch plate is the right way around.Also the clutch springs could be shot if its and old clutch as they tend to make nice noises when there loose, also check the pressure plate springs for any loose ones aswell.

Sounds like the noise is the gearbox input shaft bearing. When you adjust it all the way one way and the noise goes away you have put so much tension on the cable you have effectively got the pedal down and the input shaft stops spinning (hence no gears) and when you have it the other way you get gears as it is working correctly but your input shaft spins and makes a racket.

Hope that makes sense!

What sort of a racket?

A rough droning noise or stuff grinding and hitting stuff that it shouldn't be?
