Ford F-1 Pickup Truck Brake and Clutch Installation - Bipedal Brouhaha

Here's a side view of the pedals installed and mocked up in place.

To be safe, the master cylinder is bolted in place to ensure that it will clear the transmission crossmember.

Since we're installing aftermarket pedals and a new steering column, the stock floor plate was discarded. This allows us to build a plate to suit the pedals instead of vice versa.

With the column in place and the floor plate fab'd, you get a better idea of the lay of the land. The pedal location is perfect, with the column dissecting the center of the two pedals, providing plenty of foot room.

One thing that needs to be addressed is the rather crude holes cut into the floor to allow the pedals to be fed through.

That will be solved with a pair of these pedal trim pieces from Yogi's. The trim kit consists of two aluminum pieces that are split and pinned to allow easy installation. A rubber gasket pad is trimmed to fit and installed between the floor and the trim kit to seal the passenger compartment.

Here's the two trim kits installed around the pedals.
