I've thought of using spacers to raise the height of the gas pedal assembly......but I never pulled the trigger, this thread has inspired me to get back on that idea!!!

Great job Sieg, wonderful fabrication!!

Nice job Sieg.

Nice Job man! That's a great solution to a problem I wish we had. Drive-ability! Right now our drives like it is on rails! Wait a minute, it is on rails, 10" beams to be exact.

I've been thinking.......
What's reasonable price range in your opinion?

All aluminum has potential, but pivot wear would need to be addressed.
