Grab a Mal Wood pedal pin.

If you're in a hurry, unfortunately you won't get it sooner unless you can find someone who wants to get rid of their Mal Wood pin.

The conversion didn't come with the manual pedal box? Considering you have ripped out the pedal box...I would have thought you'd replace it with the manual box. Mal Wood pin can be fitted without removal of pedal box.

Phong is talking about the pin the clutch pedal hinges off...

Are you sure this is right? I thought that pin was welded part of the pedal... I doubt Ford will have one too...

Cheers,
Tim

Ohhhh my bad :oops:

I don't think Ford would have it. As Timmy said...it should be welded on :?

hmmm wierd!! its just a clean hole, doesn't feel like something has been welded there before ... ill take the clutch pedal off tomorrow and take it the the steel yard, see if i can get a piece same size welded in and just drill a hole in the end. my best bet.

You need the proper size diameter so that the bushes sit properly. I'm sure someone on here might know the diameter of the rod/pin...if all fails, take the clevis and bushes with you.
