Default 2004 cobra 2nd and 3rd gear shift hard

with the clutch disengaged and in gear if you rev high rpms it moves slightly. and also at high rpm shifting 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd it is very stiff. i was told it might be a bad slave cylinder but unsure? please help

welcome to the site. It is very possible the clutch isnt disengaging all the way causing difficult shifts or the clutch might be ready to go.

welcome to AFM and the forums. sounds like a slave. unless that disk explodes, it should be good for alot more miles. after the first slave on my trunk went, i had to replace it about every 60,000

Welcome to the site. I happen to agree, a similar thing happened in my buddy's truck and it turned out to be the slave cylinder.

maybe i'm forgetting something but i thought the slave cylinder is used by a hydraulic clutch system which is activated by hydraulic force, disengaging the clutch, like in the 2005 and up mustangs, certain trucks and so on. When did the Cobra's get a slave cylinder if it's operated by a manual clutch style cable??

i'm new to the T56, somewhat, but i've had a 05 GT that has a hydraulic clutch with a slave.

i was thinkin the same thing as 2oo5GT i also have a 04 cobra which is doing the same thing low rpms it shifts fine but at high rpms it its hard to shift
i was told BBK makes a clutch adjuster that sits in the firewall where the cable comes through
would that help?????????????????????????

having problems getting into gear at high rpms usually is from a bad clutch cable adjustment!
