Pedal Area and Pipes 2•4
NOTE:
Ensure that the master cylinders are
positioned as the image below. The set
screws securing the cylinders should have
nylocs on the cylinder (engine) side of the
bulkhead.
2
Fit the bias bar in to the pedal by
removing one of the clevises and sliding
it in to the tube on the pedal.
3
Refit the clevis and locking nut. For now
set it up so that the ball of the bias bar is
in the middle (Fig 2.2).

4
Apply copper grease to the 31mm brake
pedal bush.
5
Insert the bush into the pedal, as per
the clutch pedal (Fig 1.2).
6
Line the pedal assembly up to the
mounting hole in the chassis (Fig 2.3).
7
Locate an M8x60mm set screws from
your parts. Fit an M8 washer to the set
screw.
2.3
8
Secure the pedal to the chassis with the
set screw pushing it through the bush.
9
Fit an M8 washer and secure with an M8
nyloc nut.
10
Place a locking nut on the push rods and
screw the push rods into the clevis
assembly on the balance bar. It may be
necessary to remove the master
cylinder dust clip to enable the push rod
to rotate (Fig
2.4
).
2.4
NOTE:
The locking nut is used to screw the
pushrods in or out of the clevises. Screw the
nut on until it locks against the shank of the
pushrod. A spanner can then be used to
rotate the push rod and thus screw it in to
the clevis.
11
Hold a straight edge against the brake
and clutch pedal rubbers, adjust the
pushrods until the brake and clutch
pedals align (Fig 2.5).
12
Tighten the lock nuts against the clevis
when they are correctly aligned.

Fitting – Accelerator Pedal
1
Using a 5mm bit, from the inside of the
footwell, drill through the lower throttle
cable hole (Fig 3.1).
3.1
NOTE:
Be careful not to enlarge the hole in the
chassis as the cable could pull through it.
This operation is done from the engine bay
(see below).
2
Fit the accelerator cable through the
chassis from inside the engine bay and
pull the inner through so that the
trunnion [L] can be fitted.
3
Fit the trunnion into the pedal (Fig 3.2).
3.2
NOTE:
Due to varying sizes of cables it may be
necessary to enlarge the hole in the trunnion
slightly.
