Owners manual

General Installation Notes:
Please read these instructions completely before beginning
the installation. If you have any questions please call.
Before beginning the installation, disconnect the negative
battery cable and use wheel chocks to block the vehicle's
wheels.
Make sure the engine, transmission, body and frame are
properly grounded. We recommend using anti-seize lubricant
on all aluminum threads.
Refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 4, and Fig. 6 for the component names.
Brake Pedal Arm Installation
Step 1: Remove any existing brake and (if applicable) clutch
pedals, along with the pedal axle or support pin that
they are hanging from. Remove any existing nylon
flanged bearings from the pedal hanger bracket.
Remove the clevis from your existing master cylinder
pushrod.
Step 2: Remove the cotter pin, clevis pin and brake arm
clevis from the new brake arm.
Step 3: Install the new brake arm clevis onto your existing
master cylinder pushrod.
Step 4: Insert the new nylon flanged bearings into the pedal
hanger bracket.
Step 5: Insert a 1/2" sleeve bearing into each of the nylon
flanged bearings.
Step 6: If you have manual brakes, the clevis should be
connected to the upper hole in the brake arm. If you
have power brakes, the clevis should be connected to
the lower hole in the brake arm.
Align the holes in the brake arm clevis with the
correct hole in the brake arm and install the clevis
pin, 3/8" AN washer, and cotter pin.
Step 7: Install a 7/16" black washer onto the 7/16"-14 x 4" hex
bolt. Position the brake arm inside the pedal hanger
bracket. Note, 1967-1972 Chevelle: Make sure the
Chevelle Spacer is in position on the left (driver's)
side of the brake arm. Install the bolt from either side,
pushing it through one side of the pedal hanger
bracket and into the brake arm.
As you push the bolt through the opposite side of
the pedal hanger bracket, make sure the 1/2" sleeve
bearing and nylon flanged bearing don't get pushed
out by the bolt. If they do, push them back in once
the bolt is fully inserted in the pedal hanger.

Step 8: Place the other 7/16" black washer onto the end of the
bolt. Install the 7/16"-14 lock nut onto the bolt. Snug it
down, and then (if needed) loosen the nut just enough
so that the brake arm will swing freely.
Step 9: Adjust the height of the brake pedal as needed. Tighten
the jam nut on your master cylinder pushrod.
Step 10: Adjust your brake light switch.
