After taking out the pedal assembly to machine some new bushings and clean it up a bit, i decided to get rid of the horrible gas pedal situation while i was at it. so i came up with this...

I wanted to keep everything together as one unit, no more of this bolting the pedal down separately stuff. As you can see its a work in progress. Heres the pedal design:

Ill machine it out of aluminum hopefully this weekend.
the best part: a real tie rod that has no chance of falling off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
if there's interest, i would do a whole rebuild of other peoples' assemblies with UHM bushings and this new pedal.

unless of course no one else besides me is having problems with theres, which may very well be the case!

If you have a "real" cnc control, I can probably help you with the RS232. I am/was a CNC controls tech for Mori seiki and Okuma, and do retrofits now for a large company.
