If the firewall on your 1988 Suzuki Vitara has cracked near the clutch cable mounts, it's important to address this issue promptly to prevent further damage. You can repair the crack by cleaning the area around it and using a strong epoxy or metal patch for reinforcement. Additionally, consider using a grommet or rubber seal around the clutch cable to reduce stress on the firewall. If the damage is extensive, consulting a professional mechanic for a more thorough repair may be necessary.
