Here are a couple of things that I have not seen discussed on here before, the clutch linkage, specifically differences if any. Over the past several decades one thing that has always irritated me is how “soft” it is despite using OEM return springs. It hardly takes any pressure to operate. Meanwhile I have 1500 cc vintage Fiat that makes my left leg muscles shake with the pressure needed to operate it. The Bronco pedal meanwhile depresses with the minimal force, so it has always felt nice but kind of wimpy. Are all clutch linkages (V8 vs 6 cylinder) the same? Not only the pedal lever ratio, but the equalizer bar as well?
The second question I have is the pedal pivots. Obviously the bushings can be replaced and I have done this several times. But what about the pivot rod that the clutch and brake pedals hang on? I have never seen a replacement for these, which is important since they do wear to the extent that even new bushings fail to tighten up the side to side wobble of the peddles. I once tried to machine a replacement but the tolerances are pretty small for getting it just right. Anyway a replacement part would be a better way to go for me at least.
