**TX3100Guy** · 05-14-2024, 05:56 PM

Is it possible to switch from a foot operated parking brake setup on the far left side of the cab, to one of the lever operated ones in the center of the dash?

For reference purposes I have a 1953 1/2 ton five window.

The purpose of my question is that I acquired a set of kick panels from Rod Door that are pretty spiffy, but given the pod for a right and left speaker, the left side does not fit because it interferes with the foot operated mechanism.

Thanks in advance.
