Re: Fixed Something That's Always Bothered Me 67-72 C10

>>, especially when off 4 Wheeling over technical terrain.<<

Unless you have a size 16 boot, I don't see how you could operate that accelerator pedal in rough terrain.
People generally rest their heel on the floor for stability, as the gas pedal is relatively easy to operate at any position between top and bottom.

Is your brake pedal is in the correct position with the rubber stop, at the top of the pedal arm?
With that raised gas pedal, it would be EXTREMELY uncomfortable for me. With my manual trans,I would really hate getting my foot off the brake pedal on a hill and getting to the gas.

Imported cars from counties where people have little feet often have all three pedals lined up at the same height. My C4 had pedals at different heights, with the clutch higher, but they were very close together. You couldn't drive it with work boots. IMO
