On a stock ZB from the late 60's early 70's, Can knee lever arrangements be readily changed??. In other words, if lets say the E raise and lowers were on the left knee could they be changed to the right knee without big hassles?.. Most steels are no problem, but I am afraid of the ZB mechanics after hearing horror stories, and don't want to sent it across the US every time I want to tweak the copedent..

Also, if an S 10 single frame ZB has a 3 and 4 setup, would it be possible to add 2 pedals without major problems??.. I am considering purchasing a single frame 1969 ZB, but am concerned about changing copedents, adding 2 pedals, and may just stick with my original plan, and try a Sho Bud for about the 10th time.. any help would be greatly appreciated-- bob

The answer is no, they are not readily changeable. Better to send it to Greg Jones or Billy Knowels. Much involved.

A late model Shobud would certainly be easier to change around than a ZB.

Adding two more pedals, and the cross-straps, would encroach on space that might be needed by the knee levers, a workaround might be to have the knee levers remotely attached to their cross-shafts, instead of directly.
