pfenlon Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) Didnt want to pay for a new throttle pedal assembly, so I made this one. I bent it into position bought 2 sleeve bearings for £5 put them in a tube and a lockbolt on the end, it moves very freely too. Can anyone find a fault with it? I havent fitted the crank for the cable yet or cut the bolts to size, cable will exit in original hole position. Edited February 12, 2010 by pfenlon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris59 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) "Can anyone find a fault with it?" Yes Pete, one fault : why the hell did you convert your car to RHD when I want to convert a RHD TR6 to LHD Things are not what they should be Chris.

stuart Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Pete looking ok. One suggestion I would make is put a seat in and try the pedals as sometimes it is nice to bend them to suit yourself as left hand drive ones swapped over sometimes dont come up just as you would like.

Chris59 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Thanks for the offer Pete, Can you bring it to the Stoneleigh show ? I will not start to do the conversion job on mine before to have all the parts available, should find some at the show, hopefully Chris. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pfenlon Posted February 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) Chris I have made a boo boo here the decent LHD dash I cut up to repair my rusty RHD Dash, the other one is bent and I think unuseable, will check again tomorrow.

pfenlon Posted February 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hello Chris, sorry for the delay, its not as bad as I feared, no serious corrosion, a rub down or sand blast would bring it back to a vgc one, have a look if you still want it bringing let me know has the cut out for hooter switches and a hazard switch.
