No work needed for brake pedal. There should be two switches on the clutch pedal. One at the top and one at the bottom. The one at the top will disengage the cruise control and the one at the bottom is the neutral safety switch. I think this is it, but this is all from memory of work done three years ago now...

Do you mean 2 pigtails coming off the auto transmission? I know I had unused wires that ran to the auto tranny after the swap. I am pretty sure I only hooked up the reverse lights to the transmission.

Let me know how you wire the clutch cancel switch. I finally picked one up, but I have not wired it in yet.

You are right, there are 2 on the clutch pedal assembly, I was getting it confused with the brake pedal assy.

About the trans, there are 2 plugs that come off the transmission. Maybe 1 off the trans 1 off the t-case. I can take a picture if you'd like.

And as far as the clutch cancel switch goes, I would think it would make most sense to parallel it with the neutral safety switch off the clutch. There are 3 wires that come off the safety switch 1 I am assuming is for the light and the other 2 make and or break a circuit.

Was there a clutch cancel indicator light? I think I have the wiring diagram for it somewhere. Wiring in parallel might as well be greek to me unfortunately.

Good find! haha. I think I found a similar diagram after I finished my wiring.

Expect a race clutch cuz it's either on or off. Very limited feathering. Stage 2 is plenty if you're not running stock gears, 35's and a super charger. Bad combo for any clutch.

I went cheap as possible just to test for fitment and make sure everything function checked but the setup hasn't failed me yet. It's dirty but it works.

As always... if you've got the time and money then there's no excuse not to do it right the first time.

Good luck man, you're gonna love it!

Also I took a look today, there is only 1 plug on the transmission but there are 2 plugs on the t-case.

It looks like i'm just about ready to do this swap, just gotta wait for Marlin to get some clutches in stock.

black wire->depress switch->black/white wire (this will allow the engine to start when the clutch is pushed in)
black/yellow->release switch-> white/red wire (this will make the computer believe it's in drive when the clutch is extended thus allowing your cruise to function)
black/yellow->reverse switch-> red/yellow wire (this will illuminate the reverse lights when shifted into reverse)

Check out posts 17 and 25 over on my thread on TTORA for some additional info.



No. The J-shifter doesnt require anything really. The one connector it uses *I think* only serves to illuminate the light on the dash.

And on my J-shift t-case there are 2 plugs...
