That was for a clutch. Your truck was a stick at some point in it's life.

I did the stick to auto and left the brake where it's at. I don't think there was a differant pedel for autos.

I moved my pedal over about 3in by heating near the top of the arm,bend to the left,and then heat near the pedal to make the pedal strait.
