Figure 1 Figure 2
2) Remove the brake master cylinder and booster assembly (if equipped). Carefully remove the
brake lines from the master cylinder and mark them to be certain they are reinstalled into the
correct ports. Brake lines may need to be rerouted if interference occurs. Only use proper steel
brake lines when rerouting the brake lines.
3) Remove heavy pedal return spring if present. Disassemble the pedals from the pedal box. Note
order of all parts (spacers, washers, nylon washers, pivot sleeve, etc) during disassembly. The
pivot rod at the top of the box is secured with a bolt and nut. Remove the bolt and nut and slide the
bolt out of the box.
4) The clutch pedal must be drilled to relocate the position of the push rod. Figure 3. Using the
supplied card board guide, place the guide on the left side of the pedal. Fig 4 Punch the pedal at
the indicated location and drill a 3/8” hole through the pedal. Debur the new hole, lube the
components and reassemble the pedals to the upper pedal box securing with the bolt and nut
removed in step 3.
