pedal spacing
Posted: Wed Jan 15, 2014 8:44 pm
OK it`s winter now and time to do those jobs which put the car off the road for a while.
I intend to increase the spacing of the pedals by bending the clutch and brake pedals to the left. this is on a R.H.D. Series 3 Elan.
I know some of you have already done this but I cannot find it in the archives.
At present the arrangement is like this.
I hope you can see by the wear that the clutch pedal only gets pressed on the left hand side and my big feet struggle to press the brake pedal and nothing else.
The measurement from the right hand side wall are :-
Accellerator pedal 2.25"
Brake pedal 5.4"
Clutch pedal 8.5"
I don`t think it needs much adjustment to make a big difference.
Any comments or suggestions will be gratefully received.
