Re: 5 speed conversion with pics

Basically there are two different thoughts: make a bracket to change the angle or - (the way I am going) cut off the shaft, rotate it, and weld it back on. I wanted it this way so that I could make it look like that was the way it was supposed to be instead of something I cobbled together. Here are the pictures of the clutch pedal before and after welding. The first picture is of the pedal assembly in the truck. Notice the angle of the bracket. The second is of the pedal in my vice. Notice the sharpie mark on the shaft. This is the angle the assembly needs to be at to work with the new hydraulic master cylinder. The next one is the pedal after I cut off the shaft and tack welded it in the correct position. The last two are of the bracket after it was tack welded.
