Can you buy shortned clutch cables or what do you guys do? It's a off road buggy only so I don't need heater or E brake cables but what about clutch cables?

You can buy a cable shortening kit, but it does include the e-brake shorteners as well. They're not much.

Another option is just 'looping' the cable and securing it with a good set of cable clamps.

Lastly, my friend John Hunt (aka LoCashJohn) could custom make you a shortened cable guaranteed for life against breakage. For only $30, which INCLUDES SHIPPING. I have one (which I haven't put in yet) it's very nice!

Thank you Uncle Bob. I met Low Cash John when he was out here and didn't know he did that.
Thanks Again,
Steve
