pedals1.jpg Just before heading off to RITS09, a shiny piece of metal fell onto my foot, and after that, it was VERY difficult to shift without grinding.  Turns out this '80-83 pedal bracket couldn't take the load of a hydraulic clutch linkage.  So after going to all the trouble of swapping in the '84-86 clutch pedal shaft & lever, I now have to swap in a whole '84-86 pedal assembly.  '87-91 is substantially different: the column mounting holes are farther apart, and the casting doesn't reach as high below the w/s.  The '87-91 clutch pedal also lacks the welded tab for the clutch switch since those years use a wraparound switch on the clutch master cylinder pushrod.
