I've changed jobs, and now I'm driving in horrible stop-n-go traffic every day. This is causing me quite a bit a foot pain, as I have an issue in my left foot. So I'm desperate to find a way to lighten the clutch pedal on my car. I'm trying to avoid trading in my car on a new one, as I really like it.
I test-drove a 2018 GT PP w/MT82-4, and with the twin-disc clutch, the pedal is definitely lighter.
Here's the options I'm wondering about.
1. Install OEM Ford 2018 clutch & fly-wheel, but would it fit in my 2016 MT82 transmission?
2. Install an after-market twin-disc clutch & fly-wheel, but I can't find one that specifically states it makes the pedal lighter. I did find this clutch; https://www.americanmuscle.com/ramclutch-streetforce-8bolt-23spline-1112gt.html And in the comments there is someone that mentions "This Ram Dual Clutch feels lighter than stock. It takes a little getting used to since the engagement point is different from stock. It is definately ligher than the stock unit, revs quicker...." But I'm confused, as I can't tell if that person means that the pedal feels lighter, or that the fly-wheel feels lighter and causes the engine to rev easier, or both.
3. Some sort of hydraulic answer? A different master or slave cylinder or something?
4. An hydraulically adjustable throw-out bearing?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
