Do you ever get stuck into somehitng something & wish you hadn't ??
Was fiddling with pedal board, lead to switching to an alluminium one, lead to throlle cable adjustment, lead to this..... The flat metal piece highlighted below doesn't just move fore & aft I can wiggle it left & right. Should their be any side to side play, I'm presuming NO. Time to switch bushings??

QUOTE(davep @ Nov 17 2004, 01:31 PM) A remote possibility is broken welds. A full set of new bushings is a very good idea while you are in there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I still have to replace the bushings in mine. My brake pedal sticks just a little. I have looked and seen the nylon bushings. So I know it has to be done. It isn't hard, just time to clean everything up etc. give yourself a couple of days for the job. Pull everything out, clean, paint. Assemble the next day. Breaks up the job nicely.
