Extra hole in replacement drivers floor pan

[Skinnyr1]

Replacing floor pans. The drivers side has the parking brake hole, and then another hole under or near the brake pedal.

What is the second mystery hole for under the brake pedal? My Bronco is a 75, should I just weld it shut with a patch panel?

Clutch rod.

If yours does not have a clutch rod, you'll have to go buy one.

Ha. I need an extra pedal I guess. I figured the clutch would go through the firewall and not the floor.

Thanks for the insight, I'll weld it up.

You'd think it would be more of a knock-out kind of thing, rather than the installer having to plug it up for an automatic. Not like Broncos never came with autos after all!
Hmmm, I wonder over the years what percentage came as manuals and autos?
Might be close, with the nod going at least slightly to the manuals I would think.

I've never had a factory automatic Bronco. But I recall my factory automatic '77 F-250 has a rubber/plastic plug for the clutch rod.

On my replacement pan I welded it up.
