I was just kinda wondering what you guys are doing for adjustable pedals. I want my pedals adjustable so not only my big ass can drive it. Ive got a dual reservior cnc brake pedal, a single reservior clutch, and also my gas pedal. I checked out cncs website seems like what they have on there website is more for adjusting the all in one pedal assemblies. Suggestions, Pics, ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks always,
Nick

If you have three separate petal assemblys, you will need to mount them all to a plate and have the plate set up to be movable. It really would not be difficult to do this. Your brake lines would need a small piece of flex hose where they connect and the throttle cable would need to be able to move as well. Use your engineering skills. :|

There is a hydraulic throttle assembly, also. If you do like Roy said, plus use the hydro throttle and a flexible section in all three lines, it ought to be a snap.

I know a guy that rides every weekend that ran one for a long time. He may still be using it. Dont know. He lives at D&K , literally.

I dont know if they are junk or not, just putting up the idea.

I used a Jamar adjustable plate and mounted the Hydraulic clutch and brakes on it with SS line. I left the gas pedal in a fixed location. The gas pedal uses a morce cable and they dont flex well. There are ways around that however the gas is easyer to push than the clutch and brakes so if any one else drove the Buggy they can work with it.

If you use the morse cable for throttle--they have a piece that goes on the end at the gas petal that will make it adjustable---I have a freind that got one for his buggy....just my .02
