Re: 73-87 DBW pedal bracket?

This causing the engine speed to increase/decrease accordingly.
Compared to the 04 Truck pedal, the 98 Pedal seems more sensitive to me.
The 04 pedal had a lot more travel the 98 pedal. Seems that I don't have to press the 98 pedal as much as I did the 04 pedal.
FWIW: when I had the 04 pedal mounted it sat up really high, and I could not rest my foot on the floor when driving like most cars. So instead of moving just my foot I had to move my whole leg to use the throttle.
Hope this helps.
