i just tried to install the frame mount bracket that i bought from speedway motors and it's no where near right. the brake pedal would be over where the original gas pedal was. has anyone ran into this and how did you fix it? i'm wondering if i got the wrong part?

Welcome,

Any more details? What make, model and year truck? What part number for the bracket you bought or what might it fit?

Have you asked the vendor you bought the part from what they think?

Good luck!
Mine came from CPP. From what I hear they all take a little "adjusting" to make the fit, but yours does sound like a screw-up.

I just installed the one I got fronm speedway motors bolted right in. The quality is good. might hve to tweek the angle of the pedal arm to use the original hole. BUT since I have to replace the floorboard I think I will handle it that way.

I believe there is always some "tweaking" to be done. But we wouldn't have it any other way.

I think Big Chevy is right. I can't think of any aftermarket mod I've done that worked right out of the box. And I also agree with him, that's the fun of it.

For those of you that need to align the clutch and brake brackets, they will "bend" enough to lineup with the floor holes.

I'm wondering if you're mounting it in the correct holes. Got a picture? If you do, I'll compare it to mine.
