Re: Those of you who converted to rear disk, can you feel much of a difference?

Yes, I swapped the pedal.

The hydroboost pedal came from an automatic transmission truck. My truck is a manual. I set both pedals side-by-side, and was looking for some way to move the pivot pin on my manual tranny pedal. Then I realized that I could just cut down the foot pad on the automatic pedal, and use that. I used an angle grinder to shorten the foot pad, and the rubber cover for a manual pedal fit right on.
