pfenlon Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Apparently a TR4 "H" centre section is a rarity and can cost around £200. So more thought was needed, Rogers suggestion was the answer, and I can now apply the Handbrake without knuckle rash, thanks to all, for their observations/ suggestions. A little heat and a bend, then a good weld around the area did the trick. Note, lightweight Le Mans Racing accelerator pedal, very rare find. Edited March 18, 2021 by pfenlon spelling.

ianc Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 Difficult to heel & toe with that pedal as it doesn't extend to the left on the lower part. Needs one of the Paddy Hopkirk add-ons - but quite easy to make for oneself. Likely to cost rather more than 16/6 plus 1/6 P&P = 18 bob (90 pence)!

I am sure the weight of the added welding to the HB lever is more than the weight saved by the drillings of the pedal Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lebro Posted March 21, 2021 Report Share Posted March 21, 2021 I find I can not heel & toe, but "side of shoe " & toe easily with the standard setup. Bob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
