Installed New Pedal for Heel Toe
#18
For months, I thought that the cardboard piece was some kind of template. I think I finally understand now.
So, if we call Ultimate Pedals to place an order, can't we simply ask for a "Seattle_Sun Special" rather than giving them some long-winded explanation on what hole to flare out from, etc.? Don't the have a record of the pedal design they created for you that they can just copy for us to buy?

Thinking about it, I believe the bed is on the pedal arm and not the pedal itself! Sorry for the mix up, but it's been awhile. Same idea though

I just ordered myself the pedal last week and am waiting for it to arrive. Seattle_Sun, do you know the approximate thickness of the base of that rubber pad? I discussed the options with them and they suggested I stick with their poly "studs." I do want to source a rubber pad to use versus your cardboard one though.

By the way, did you see my comment regarding your brake pad recommendation in the other thread?

I was hoping to avoid having to do that... Oh well. The new pedal arrived today just in time for me to do so. I actually thought it was going to be more difficult to get the pedal off, but the hard part was wringing under the scuttle to get at the pedals. I did as you did and just put a piece of cardboard in there temporarily. I found a sheet of rubber at Lowe's that I will cut to size tomorrow.

I just installed my new gas pedal with the half inch extension like the pictures Seattlesun posted. I called Ultimate Pedals and spoke with Robert. He seemed to know exactly what I needed to match the other stock pedals. The new pedal arrived in about one week and just bolted right up using the original 2 torx screws. Had to pay an extra $25 to get the "Heavy Bevel" edge to match other pedals. Around $100 complete and delivered. If interested order Model 749 with Shiny Smooth finish and Flat Grip Insert. Heal-Toe much easier now. Wouldn't have thought half inch was enough but it seems to be about right.
