Ok today i was looking on eBay.. and i saw these pedals there like what you see in the imports but i like the looks of them.. Like these http://www.sounddomain.com/sku/RACTP302A .. Will they work in my 85' Bronco? How hard are they to install? Thank You

 

Hey Dude,

Man, the Auto Parts Stores are all carrying those pedals. Ever since the "Fast & the Furious", the shelves ae loaded with "Rice Burner" parts.

The even have neon lit pedals with dragons on them.

From what I have seen, they look like they have at least two screwed on metal straps, that secure the pads to your vehicles existing pedals.

Typically you only get a Brake and Gas pedal, but I have seen 3 piece kits that include the clutch pedal, as well.

My concern about them, is can you get them on tight enough to stay in place for a long period of time? I don't know the answqer to that.

In regards to secure mounting, I think I would have a tendency to go with the pedals that have actual mounting "bolts", that you can get a socket on, instead of phillips screws.

They appear to be really easy to install, however, I don't know if they rquire you to remove your existing rubber pads or not.

If they go over the exisiting pad, they will add a lot more pedal than you are use to.

For the most part, they are normally purposely made/molded with a non slip surfaced, like racing pedals.

I don't know if that is a plus or minus for normal around town driving, cause your foot does have a tendency to stick/stay on a pedal. They would take some getting use to.

 

I have those pedals. But I have a 94 f150 so I can help, but you should be able to fab something up.

 

Very easy to install. Helped my friend put them on his car. You dont have to remove the rubber. Should only take a phillips and ten min at the most...

I put a set on my wife's honda (never tried to burn rice with it) they look good and seem to function very well, had em on about a year.
