Cheers

a quick searchy gave me linky link





Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Thanks for that.

Unfortunately there's no info in those links about how the Sierra pedal was modified (the info I'm after).

If you have a flat secure face in front of the pedal should be a simple matter of mounting a cylinder on that face below the pivot point of the pedal & making right size pushrod to go to the pedal where you can secure by a variety of means.

Alternatively, mount a cylinder at the top facing in the opposite direction so as the pedal is pushed down the pushrod comes backwards to operate the cylinder - all depends what you've got to mount on round the pedal

Cheers Russ.

I have an idea in my mind, but wasn't sure if the pedal was man-enough for having a hole drilled through it.

From what I remember of the Sierra clutch pedal it's fairly substantial, as long as you're not planning on operating a truck size clutch with it I would think you'd have no probs - also as it's clutch, rather a lot less serious if it were to fracture than a brake pedal!
