Is it a lot of work to swap from wide pedals to the narrow ones? Wasn't sure if everything was the same or if it would be major fabrication. Thanks.

I think the shaft size is identical, and the narrow pedals are a straight forward swap.. Not only that, but you'll be able to do a one on one trade.. Your wide pedals straight across for some narrow ones.. A LOT more people are after wide Bud pedals... bob

I just did that a few weeks ago. all you need is 2 small allen wrenches, and a little lube. Maybe a small fine file, to file the burr off the shaft where the end connector is. Also make sure you measure where the rods come down to the pedals, so they come down straight. Are you going to replace wide with narrow, or narrow with wide? If you need and help, please PM me. I will be glad to help you. Ronnie

I have the wide ones now. I want to put narrow ones on. I can't get used to the wide. They just don't feel right. And I hit the wrong pedals inadvertently. It's kind of annoying.👎

Jayson, I will trade you 3 wide for the 3 narrow. My narrow ones are from my 77 LDG. Look in your private messages. Or send me a message, please. Ronnie

Well I recieved the pedals today but they do not fit. I'm kinda bummed. The part the shaft goes through is quite a bit narrower than my pedals. I wind up with a good 3/8 inch gap between each pedal.

| You may be able to bush the 3/8" gap with some thick hard plastic washers. Try your automotive supply store... tell them what you need and they may have something that meets the need. |

Well I got them put on.(still don't have spacers yet) just to try them out. I definitely like the feel of the narrow pedals better. They do set a lot closer to the floor than I'm used to because they have the stop that hits the pedal bar. There isn't as much height adjustment but the feel is a whole lot better. Can't wait to get spacers on so they don't slide around on the shaft.
