Is the cobra assembly going to feel any different? I thought it was virtually the same once you remove the spring from the gt assembly.
I hope it will take out the sloppy feeling at the top 1" of pedal travel.

no makes it worse. The return spring holds the pedal up. Once you remove it, your pedal will be heavier and the pedal will sag. Mine did this.
Dude I think you have something else going on! Mine doesn't sag at all and returns back way better then it did with the spring in. I have not had it stick to the floor once, since I pulled the extra spring.

Did you ever install the GT500 pedal assembly? If so how does it work?I hope it will take out the sloppy feeling at the top 1" of pedal travel.
Anyone have problems with pushing fluid out of there master cylinder cap after some spirited driving??

Changing the clutch line does nothing to fix this problem and while DOT 4 brake fluid might help it won't fix it either. So far the only fix it that I've read is an aftermarket clutch. Ford is leaving us hanging on this one. :bash:My sticky pedal caused my pressure plate assembly and clutch to prematurely wear to the point where my dealership replaced them including a new flywheel. I got lucky that the dealership didn't void my warranty and I not have a brand new clutch but I'm determined not to let this happen again.
Has anyone figured out what the absolute best fix for sticky pedal is? I'm reading through this thread and hearing horror stories of guys who straight up removed the spring from the stock assembly and coming up with other issues. I'm not against spending the cash for a GT500 assembly I just want to be sure that this will cure the problem. Will the combo of a GT500 clutch assembly, JHR clutch line, & DOT4 fluid all together fix it? Or does my '12 GT already basically have the GT500 assembly but with the helper spring and will removing the spring do the trick?
I'm at a loss.

I'm not convinced it's just the spring and taking it off ruins the feel. I think most of the "transmission" problems are the clutch pressure plate and fingers not capable to handle the high revs. If yours was stuck to the floor sitting still you have another issue.What does an aftermarket clutch have to do with fixing the sticky pedal? Seems to me like the clutch sticking is almost entirely due to that stupid helper spring design. When I picked up my car from the dealership today the pedal was completely stuck to the floor and I had to put my foot behind the pedal and pull up. With just a slight bit of pressure it sprung back into place. The helper spring had binded in the opposite direction causing the pedal to stick all the way to the floor when the tech removed the factory clutch.
Once I pulled the pedal back and the spring went back to its normal position it worked fine. I just don't know what to do now.

After the SC install clutch would stick almost every time on high RPM's. Did the simple 15min DIY and took out the assist spring a while back ago and never had the clutch stick again. Why spend $100+ to buy a new assembly when the only diffrence is the assist spring and the mounting tabs for the assist spring. everything else is 100% the same.
