Dual pedal setup suggestions
« on: April 16, 2022, 08:47:54 AM »
Will be setting up the 34 Master frame I bought and plan on using a T5 transmission in the future. That said I'll need to re-locate my steering column and come up with a dual pedal setup for the clutch and brake cylinders.

Anyone have experience with one of these setups?  Prefer the firewall mount and if possible maintain a power brake booster.

Ed, i've used several of the Wilwood tripple swing pedal assy's. The last was on my buddy Lonnies '32 Ford. He wanted a wider separation in pedals, so i got the double cyl brake pedal assy and a single clutch so i could get a 1"wider separation. No power booster though.

FYI on the Wilwood dual cyl brake, it has an adjustable bar that sets the balance between frt/back brakes. No need for a proportioning valve.

Sorry for the dark picture of the '32 installed, i had to zoom in on an existing picture.

☆Add ☆ this was in 2008, i got them from Speedway. They were quite a bit cheaper then🥴

Thanks sammons...that looks like a really clean setup.  One of my buddies just stored a 1960 Dodge pickup here for three days before importing it into Canada. It had a real clean two pedal setup....don't think it was OEM..but now wish I took a picture of it. 
 
It was wide also...the levers were "long enough" that you could run a steering column between them.

Just found this old video but I'm sure this is the same truck....you can see the pedal setup.  What was nice is that the pedal assembly was mounted on a flat piece of steel..."easy mounting".  Flathead six with a hydraulic clutch cylinder.

Another video of the truck at about 1:52 you can see the two pumps... both are both single reservoir...I would require a double reservoir master cylinder.
