Hi Everyone - New Denver Stovebolter here. This site is great and the people are fantastic. This is my first post and question as I have already gotten many answers from past discussions. Hope I am not violating any introductory protocols.

The clutch and brake pedals in my 52 truck have about 1/8"-5/32" side play in them at the top of the pedals. I've read about the challenges of replacing the bushings due to them being too thick for the shaft so I wanted to know if this much play is acceptable? It feels like a bit much but I have nothing to compare it to. Since I've got it stripped down to the frame ready to sandblast I wanted to make this determination first. Thank you for any advise you have or telling me if this is in the wrong forum.
