hard clutch

so i replace my old clutch cable with a brand new one thinking the old one might have been rusty causing it to be very hard to action and giving my hand a workout, turns out its the same with the new one, i took off the side cover and desassembled the actuator, cleaned and greased it, but still hard as hell, i also ajusted it lots of times and no good results, as a final attempt, i replaced my clutch springs with some way softer ones, got softer but not quite as i thought it would be, just yesterday i popped my cable, im running out of ideas here, can someone help me out.

How did the lever pull feel with the softer springs?

check basket for wear at point clutch steel plates contact basket . File off any rough edges so plates dont catch and stick. is rod bent between pusher and actuator ?
Check everything, assume nothing.

the push rod is in good condition, not bent, havent really disassembled the clutch itself, that should be my next step i hope that makes a difference.

alright :woohoo: who wouldve thought such a small thing would make a difference, all i did was just turn the push rod around and bam the clutch magically got softer haha
