Brumby Pedal Box

I know it's a long shot but if anyone in Perth has a pre-reinforced pedal box they want to get rid of before a pay someone to weld mine up for the second time, I'll be happy to part with beer/cash for it.

I am in the same position but I am in brissy. Is this a relatively common issue? I have only had the car for under 6 months and after plenty of mucking around with clutch and cable realised mine needed to be welded up...has anyone thought up a good solution for this?

Ps sorry for the hijack smiles, thought someone might have a solution for the both of us

No worries at all- and good question- I wonder if this is a common problem. I think the clutch itself is getting harder to push on my car, which is resulting in the pedal box failing. Does anybody know what would cause this?

By the way, I bought a welder today, and I'm going to have a go at reinforcing it.

Yep.. it's a pretty commen problem. I would suggest you buy some 3mm flat plate, about 150mm square but it will need cutting to shape. I also recommend you buy an L.Series clutch cable and make the 2 go together. I have done this a few times in the past but unfortunately didn't take any pictures

The reason for the L.Series clutch cable is because it is longer it doesn't try and side load the pedal box when the pedal is pressed down. But this is also a good start to fitting a 5 speed in your Brumby
