IT AIN'T BENT !

Post by joel gopan »

Have you have ever wondered why your Clutch Pedal Pad is lower than the Brake Pedal Pad, on the CCKW/Chevrolet 4X4? It's made that way. I may have a few NOS pedals left, No CCKW NOS CCKW Clutch pedals tho, but have a good used one.

The clutch pedals are different. The CCKW has an extension on it that the Chev does not....

Not all CCKWs had the extended additional hook rivited on. They used the Chevrolet Clutch pedal and rivited another longer hook to make it fit the CCKW, and there were some were made specific to the CCKW without the extra hook. There were two styles of raised treads, one was more coarse than the other. I used NOS pedals and have the coarse tread on the brake.
