OBP/ST Floor Mounted Pedal Box

Hello,

Has anyone fitted floor mounted pedals in their Avon? Any pictures how it was done?

Cheers, James

Carl Gledard did.

Can't remember who's he used, but it was like the generic one that ST and others sell.

Yes I did and I got an extra 2 inch leg room. I got them from luego. Car Builder Solutions sell the same ones.

Not into an Avon but fitting one in my Tiger B6. I am just in the process of fitting them and think there's a few pics in my archive. If you want any more pics / measurements then drop me a U2U with your email address. I am fitting a floor mounted throttle pedal from MK instead of the pendulum ST one that I got with the floor mounted ST brake / clutch pedals.

Cheers
Paul

There's a pic in my archive showing twin Master cylinders fitted and if you looked in 'Lightning's photo archive I'm sure there's pics showing the pedal box itself fitted in footwell.

I already have the pedal box, just scratching my head how to make it fit. The plate tiger weld in is too high, and also the box doesnt fit between the chassis uprights.










The clutch will be cable operated. At the moment my plan is to cut out the floor plate and chop the pedal box to make it fit, just wondered if anyone had a different method....

I have fitted the same ones in my avon.
Two things from memory were I chopped the edge of the pedal back plate to make it fit over the box section. And the other thing is that you need to position such that the clutch cable has a clear path through the same box section when you drill a big hole through it. I then just bolted it to the floor plate...





Thanks
Adrian

Tiger supply floor mounted pedal sets.
They have also fitted them in their previous Avon domonstrator.

They definately have a better feel and give that all needed extra leg room.
Its worth giving Tiger a call
