clutch pedal conversion

[marcusthemoose]

does anyone know if it is possible to convert my series 2 from its cotterpinned cluch pedal (inside the master cylinder compartment) to the later type, "respaced" one (outside the chassis rail, in the gearbox tunnel)? i am thinking it may make driving her easier with size 12s. how respaced is the later type anyway?
thanks in advance

That's the problem with having small feet - it's easy to miss the pedals. My size 14s have no problem - especially with heel-and-toe downchanges!

no seriously, is it worth doing or should i just stick with the cottered one?

Sorry mate -I don't know - I was just keeping the thread going.........

There's information regarding that conversion on page EE.3 of the big manual.

so it does, thanks. this is helpful, but i was ideally looking for someone who had done it, and could tell me if its actually worth it, and could highlight any possible snags. thanks again
