i guess i have a fat left leg!

i am having trouble getting the angle and clearance i need to release the B pedal while on the A and NOT activating the LKL.

also, i need to extend the LKV (B to Bb) dwon about 1".

i have lowered the rear legs 2" and still have these issues. hte clearance angle thru the center of left levers and to the B pedal is about 15 to 30 degrees, for me kinda sharp angle.

other than that it's a minit steel. clean as new. does NOT look worked on at all. very solid.

like i said maybe my legs have gotten fatter!

who may have these parts or can make them? it seems to be two parts needed, i.e. LKL off=set about 1" in a 'L' shape and vertical lever 'drop' arm piece that the horizontal (tilted lever) attaches to. just need to over about 1" also.

thanks for everyone's help. you email me direct if desired.

Billy

Many players including myself raise the "A" pedal slighty above the "B" pedal.

yea, i do also. it helps release the B to get minors, etc.

even after lowering, i still have trouble working due to tight clerance angle of teh left kicks.

thanks,
Billy
