Installing STEEDA CLUTCH SPRING on my Ford SHELBY GT350

[@Chris-by4zc]

I just did this on my 21 GT and I’m so grateful for it. That factory spring kicks your foot out so hard and makes the pedal feel like it has two different stages. I was skeptical of a $20 spring making a difference but it’s literally night and day. I used needle nose vise-grip pliers and it was super easy to take out. Hardest part was getting in and out of car 🤣.

[@ralphsmallblock4367]

The fact you mod your own Shelby 350 on KZbin for it to be seen was very refreshing excellent work.

[@Indifference2000]

I agree! Stock clutch pedal feels super soft to me. Took me a lil while to get used to it. I would definitely wanna try this spring out. That was my main gripe about the gt350 when I test drove it

[@laszlodesimon4768]

Continually impressed by your mechanical confidence and willingness to try anything. Awesome!

im glad you never hurt yourself doris my clutch pedel is so hard to press down i need to do this so thank you

[@ignacioserrano76]

love all your videos and I keep watching it. I love you you’re #1

[@Tatsukoa808]

Okay I just did this mod. Instructions say to depress the clutch and then use needle nose vice grips to depress the spring even more and remove. Throw that right out the door. Spent 30 mins fighting with the spring in a tight place. Just depress the clutch, reach up with your hand to where the spring is connected at the top, pull down and towards you. Pops right out! Easy mode! Great mod!!

[@woman.driven]

It was a hassle. The instructions for some reason are for the GT. The GT does not have a dual spring set up like the GT350. It took longer than expected. Hope you like the feel. I love mine.

[@Tatsukoa808]

It’s funny I remember clicking off of Sarah n tuned video in the chat room to find this channel at the very top of the list and all for good reason cause I dont think if I didn’t find this channel I wouldn’t have as much fun as I do now

[@ToasterBath_713]

I never really minded the soft pedal feel. Being that I live in Houston and there’s always traffic, it’s saved my knee. But, I did switch over to the steeda spring and I think it’s a nice compromise between no spring and factory. Plus, I call bs on people who say it takes 5 minutes to remove lol

[@tcr2237]

Josh D it takes 20 secs to remove... once you find the right type of pliers!!! I found mine in 4 mins.

when i did my clutch spring on my 2017 gt all i did was get a long flat head screwdriver push the clutch in and used the screwdriver to work the bottom of the spring perch to the right until the whole thing popped out installation of the new spring was super easy clutch pedal feels way better

Eyy... @blacktop_hemi here from IG. So proud to see you doing these kinda videos.. not too many females doing this kinda stuff and its always nice to see a girl get her hands dirty lol. Just a tip.. use all caps in your title.. that way when people search any keywords in your title it will be one of the first ones to pop up since you used all caps youtube has the tendency to show videos that have all caps first. Can't wait to see more videos and keep posting those IG pics so i can show some love:)

[@drewsky1967]

Robert Santilli this motor needs a good break in. It’s hand built, and high performance. 13-1 compression ratio. Need a good 1000 miles and oil change before it gets real heavy throttle. After 500mi it’s safe to start getting on it a little more and more

[@roc1rob593]

Drew K I'm not going to argue with you one bit. To each his own. My car has 15k so far (2017) and I DD it. I have no problems yet ( knocks on wood) and as for oil consumption that some complain about, I have no issues what so ever. But my main purpose of the post was to tease the young lady. Its her car and she'll do what she wants. C'MON........ Just do it. LOL

i just watch this today, so, when you installed the clutch's spring .. was there any smell after driving ?? some time when clutch pushed more to the desk and the friction can cause that

I did not. Felt better but no odd smell for me.

[@biggrigg8558]

Does it engage better than the stock spring?

[@aramgaribyan6248]

Best thing I ever put on my GT350. The stock clutch spring makes me feel like I'm having a stroke.

[@woman.driven]

Aram Garibyan I agree

[@GarveyMustangMan]

The only issue is if you install the steeda clutch spring which is 35 lbs compared to 180 the no lift shift function doesn't work

[@allahrakha6023]

No doubt single spring is easy fitting but two spring has some diffirent of the fuction at releasing the clutch during push the clutch engaging or disanging softly .but single spring same pressure during engage or disengage.

You'd be surprised. It's not as hard to press down as you think, just better pedal feel and engagement.

Been thinking about getting one of those springs for my GT350. My ranger has a stiffer clutch and almost feels better weighted than the stock Shelby spring.

[@woman.driven]

If you prefer the stiffer clutch, then this will do the job.

[@bannerrj41]

I just bought my gt350 today and I can’t stand the clutch feel. Does it engage sooner with the new spring

[@woman.driven]

Not sooner, it makes the clutch petal stiffer. So you can definitely feel the engagement point way better.

How does the clutch feel? I hear it feels better, but what does that mean? Is it heavier? Lighter? More linear? I’m asking because I am thinking of doing this, but am wary of making the clutch harder to engage (I have an ecoboost that I daily drive). Thank you, and keep up the great vids!

[@woman.driven]

A bit more of feedback and pressure so you feel the engagement. The springs make it so the clutch does not feel like a loose tooth lol.
