Questions about pedal clearance on toe boards.

[Los_Control]

I'm thinking I did something wrong when I assembled my pedal assembly.

The adjuster is clocked so seems one way installed is correct, other way is wrong.  <----- I'm thinking I installed it wrong but not sure.

 

Poor photo, I'm trying to show the toe board in place lying on the pedals & 2" away from the cowl ..... I can push it down & install the bolts, that just seems wrong to me.

Dump the clutch & will bang the floor .....

When I installed the Toyota MC, I cut the rod to fit this setup .... pushing it down 2" to clear the floor .... riding with the brakes on.

So I'm just guessing the problem is when I installed the adjustment collar then readjusted it.

 

Can anyone tell me what is the normal clearance between the toe board & pedals? ...... Any suggestions what else to look at?

 

 

Trying to get the new floor pan set to weld in .... same problem it is hitting the pedals & not lay down where it needs to be.

So I thought to put the toe board in place to see exactly where the floor pan should sit ..... seems obvious something is wrong with how I assembled the pedals.

The floor board IS the pedal stop. Resting against the bottom of the floor is just how it should be. If you put the draft seals on the pedals they will cushion the hit against the floor when you release the pedals. You’ll likely have to readjust your brake and clutch linkage now once you put the floor in.

Thanks @Merle Coggins That really helps me in my decision how to proceed.

 

I bought the truck in 2018 & removed the floors then. Now putting it back together the only original piece is the upper toe board.

The pedals keep interfering with installing the floor ..... In my mind that seems wrong ...... keep thinking I installed the pedals wrong or .... something.

 

I can very easily just push down the toe boards/pedals & install the fasteners ..... I'm thinking that is not the correct way ..... I had to ask.

 

I know I need to remove the MC push rod to install the toe boards, then cut it to length to fit.

I have the new dust covers from DCM ..... they scare me thinking about stretching them over the large pedals ..... I have a plan!

 

I feel silly now asking this question, I had no idea the floor would be the stop.

I screwed a piece of garden hose to the underside of the floor board to cushion the pedal return and cut and super glued the draft seals onto the pedals.
