Throttle foot peddle bolts
I did a post about this a while back but can't find the original post or I would use that. I'm looking for the ball end bolts that the throttle foot pedal mounts to on the floor. Someone gave me some info on where to find them and I did buy a couple but, (not blaming anyone here) I didn't realize that there were quite a few different sizes of these. The ones I got had the right size ball on the end, but the threaded part wasn't correct, it was 1/4" and I need 5/16". I was at Summit Racing today and they couldn't help me. They suggested LMC and, I looked online but, couldn't find any. Does anyone know where I can find these? This is holding up finishing my truck. HELP!!!!
Thanks for any help! |

Re: Throttle foot peddle bolts
Well, I talked to an old forum friend and he answered some questions I had but, posted some new questions. He verified that 1/4" threads is what the threads should be in the floor but, really didn't have an answer for the fact that mine are 5/16. I did call Classic parts, Brothers trucks and speedway. The studs that these places had were all 1/4". So, if there is room, I'll put nuts and washers behind the floor on the studs I have and, push come to shove, I'll cut the threaded part off of the studs I have and weld 5/16" bolts on to that. There's more than one way to skin a cat!...lol Thanks to everyone for the help, it was much appreciated!

I have this same problem with my '65. I ordered the ball studs form Classic Parts and they have 1/4"-20 threads and my holes are tapped for 5/16"-18 threads. I know that my truck is stock when it comes to this area, my grand father was the original owner (I've owned it now for 34 years) and it never had these replaced until I took them out many years ago when I switched to a cable throttle set up. I decided to just keep the cable throttle set up for now until I can find the right studs to use. Next time I order from McMaster Carr I might add two of these to my list to see if they will work. Shipping would be more than these two parts alone so I'll just wait till I have a larger order... https://www.mcmaster.com/#9512k63/=1c207md

Edit: Just got off the phone with McMaster-Carr and ordered two of those bolts. It sure is weird that everyone else I've talked to has 1/4"x20 thread and, mine and aggie91, have 5/16x18 thread studs. A big thank you to aggie91 for posting up the info for those studs, it is MUCH APPRECIATED!!! Last edited by '65 chevy lover; 03-20-2018 at 11:36 PM. Reason: Extra info |

Re: Throttle foot peddle bolts
These are what is stock, maybe you can heliarc ( I think that’s the term) if these are smaller size.
