Hi guys,

I would like to know if anyone else is using the wilwood pedal box, the same as supplied in the minitec kit.

I have the mounting plate from mintec and the same pedal box that they use but I am finding that I get quite a lot of flex in the way it is fitted, Does anyone else experience this?

If you have a different mounting system other than the minitec style or have found a solution to this then I would love to see it!

Cheers,

Chris.

Thanks guys, So it seems that the minitec bracket isnt really man enough for the job.

What it does it tie into the original locating points so its flexing on the dash bar. I did make a steering bracket which tied the dash bar to the roll cage dash bar, but it doesnt seem to have helped. I think I will beef that up and add some bracing on the other mounting points on the pedal box.

Cheers for the pictures guys :)

Oh and a tip! Don't press down on the cylinders dry, run a little fluid through them.

The seals will pop of on the inside.
