Mustang Classic Car Clutch Pedal Support Replacement Episode 158 Autorestomod

[@bobsbarnworkshop]

I have a 67 Mustang that originally had a 3 speed standard trans. I bought a "clutch assist spring" because it was missing from mine and was wondering if it originally had one and if I need to install it with my T-5 trans and Centerforce clutch... Thanks in advance!

[@raceday-iy7vm]

Beautiful work guys

[@walterlatham8075]

I just watched this, and its previous video, and noticed a few interesting things. The original support had the elongated hole so the clutch stop could be adjusted. My Mar '64 build was like this. Also, there was the bracket that screwed to the firewall that held a piece of felt around the rod. Again, like my '64.

[@AutoRestoMod]

This was in an early to mid '65.

Do you know the part # for the washer and the clip at 10:13 min into the video

[@AutoRestoMod]

No sir I don't that video is probably 10 years old. Lol

[@captainawesum1]

do you guys have a video on the removal of the steering column? I cannot install a completed pedal assembly while the column is installed and can't figure out how to remove it, thanks

[@wes85292]

all i needed to do was take the 3 bolts at the steering gear box out and i was able to get mine in

[@aps81sarge]

Hey guys, question, I'm changing my 67 from an auto to a manual. Can I use the same pedal bracket or is there one specific to each? I thought you mentioned it before but can't find it????

[@rs2543]

Any good videos on how to fully remove old pedals... support and all

[@AutoRestoMod]

We'll be removing the pedal support from the '65 Ranchero, but the pedals are all gone. The steering column must come out. You can leave the shaft in place and remove the pedals and then the mount.

[@PHCBILL]

I made one of those adjustable fork pusher thingie for a guy out in Houston TX one time.

[@AutoRestoMod]

Worked great too!

[@javiernaranjo1991]

To install the clutch spring, do I need to remove the pedal support? It’s for a clutch cable system

[@AutoRestoMod]

I would

[@user-fy6hi9eu9d]

Out of the car it looks do easy to install spring. Is it that easy if I don't have pedals out of car?

[@edwincraig1830]

1970 f-250 4x4 4 speed New process trans. Is it possible to replace the clutch pedal spring insulators without having to remove the whole pedal assy?

[@AutoRestoMod]

Possible, yes. Easy...no.

[@edwincraig1830]

@@AutoRestoMod how can it be done?

[@meanbgreen]

Showing the needle bushings could be better as far as the order of placement of parts. Like the brake pedal bushings replacement from stock. also if you use the kit that you have to weld the pedal rod in place. are the 4 washers in the kit for spacers of brake pedal?

[@starefly9103]

Tried to do it the same way (66 model ) and SD clutch pedal hook just bent as there to much tension and lug is bent about 30° from pedal assembly axis (used brand new SD spring) I don't know if spring strength is off or if pedal is made out of crappy metal but didn't work and still try to address the issue... disappointed by brand new parts...

[@AutoRestoMod]

Sorry to hear about that issue.

[@starefly9103]

Finally got a spring from ACP and fixed the issue. Other brand new spring was junk. Love your show guys keep going !

[@DudeDudesson]

That was a rather elaborate clutch pedal assembly. Are there no modern hydraulic solutions available?

[@AutoRestoMod]

We'll be covering that later this summer using Modern Driveline (www.moderndriveline.com/) they offer a really nice and effective hydraulic clutch.

[@wes85292]

i just got a 66 coupe the clutch /brake pedal rod has a "C" clip on it and a lot of parts are dated C4 why is this ? is mine a early 66 model ?

[@AutoRestoMod]

Unless Ford made a dramatic change the part number (C4ZZ-00000) would stay the same from its inception. If a minor change was made the part number would reflect this with a suffix change (C4ZZ-00000-A). A minor change could be as small as going from a C-Clip to a break-over clip.

[@fc2092114]

hey, I need this kit for my f100 71, this kit fits in it?

[@mcinkyt]

For a more aggressive restoration does the whole dash assembly come out of those cars?

[@AutoRestoMod]

Nope it is spot welded in. After 1968 Ford started bolting in the dashes.

[@Dusto-qz1hz]

Can you guys or anyone pm me a part list of whats needed to switch from auto to manual, on a 1970 mustang? I cant find definite answers anywhere and its starting to drive me crazy.

[@AutoRestoMod]

Contact Jeff at [e-mail] and he'll work through the list. Though most of what show in the support vid is what you'll need. But he can get the whole list.

[@skylinrr34]

Would this couch pedal assembly work on a 70 maverick ?

[@AutoRestoMod]

Not sure. We'd recommend getting some measurements and comparing notes. We "think" it "might"...but have been bitten by that before!

[@SixtyFiveDropTop]

Pedal to the metal episode.

[@AutoRestoMod]

Oye. You really went flat out with that one...

[@jimshaefer2771]

hey guys just finished watching and have a question. You guys used a master roller bearing repair kit. I was wondering if this would work in my 66 galaxie? Thanks,Jim

[@AutoRestoMod]

Honestly I don't know. You might contact NPD and see if you can get measurements and compare to your car.

[@MrWinn]

Why would you choose not to upgrade the trunnion to a ball bearing? I mean, I get it, if the car was going to be a 100 point concours restoration, then no, but you have stated that is not the path for this car. I'm not saying you are wrong. I'm just curious about the thought process that led to this decision. To me its one of those "Might as well"s that come with repairing/constructing cars. Excellent video yet again.

[@AutoRestoMod]

Well, Jeff wants to use that when we do the five speed later this summer. It will give them a double hit on the parts.

[@Dusto-qz1hz]

just pedal tree wise, sorry if that wasn't clear.

[@MrCbell57]

Hey I noticed you guys put this together without ever prepping the parts for paint! Really. Just leave the Ecoat as the paint? OMG>

[@AutoRestoMod]

Hahahahaha. To each his own. You can paint it if you want. The only way the ecoat is going to rust is if the car leaks like a sieve. If I do my job right; it won't.
