Convert to hanging style accelerator pedal
 

I have a `68 with the floor mounted style pedal. I want the hanging style. I believe they started in like `70. At any rate, I had heard there was a FAQ somewhere about what all was involved in the conversion, but I can't find it. Can anyone point me to the info or provide it? I was about to just buy the whole linkage and assembly for the new style and just work through it, but before I do, I wanted to see if there was info on it here.

Thanks in advance,
David

Has anyone converted from the floor mount to an after market style such as lokar? I know there are other after market brands that are less expensive than the lokar brand.

Re: Convert to hanging style accelerator pedal
 

anything from a 71 to 87 will work. Not sure about the 88 up.

I know several have done it, just not sure. Most I know use/love the Lokar, even though it is kinda rich.

Here is some info on the Lokar

Yeah. The Lokar is cool looking, but it's still floor mounted. Never have much cared for the floor mount.

I installed this http://www.lokar.com/product-descrip...assemblies.htm style pedal in my 68. It worked out flawlessly. PM me with any questions.
