#1 foot pedals

Post by stevex75 » Fri Jul 08, 2011 9:09 pm

Ive changed my series 1 3.8 from lhd to rhd and used the original brake pedal box but with a new throttle pedal.It all looks ok but it is a bit of a squeeze for my size tens to operate the throttle without touching the brakes. Any comments?

You have to bend the brake pedal so that it leans over to the left. My size 12s fit in a treat now!

I'll take a picture if it's of any help.

Here are the pedals in lhd form:

And now in RHD. Note the bake pedal is just about straight, and something I had forgotten, the clutch pedal was also tweaked away from the brake pedal because of the requirements of my large feet! This was after I had driven the car for the first time up at CMC where the car was being finished, and they adjusted the clutch pedal.

I think that they need painting again after the recent changes.
