Mine is a CCP kit too John, is your brake pedal aluminum? Mine sits up way too high and I`m not sure what to do about bringing it down to where it needs to be.

I just cut the arm and added to the length by 1 1/4"

I think that the arm length is ok but the angle is wrong. Unfortunately I don't know how to weld aluminum.

The arm is steel, only the pedal is aluminum and it threads off..

Sorry about not being clear John, I meant to say that the arm on mine is aluminum, my pedal threads off.

That's strange, both of mine are steel with an aluminum pedal..aluminum would be more costly to make you'd think..

For sure it's more costly but looks neat. I haven`t looked closely to see if there`s any adjustment for the angle, the length seems right.

I've never seen one made out of aluminum...if the length seems right why do say yours is too high..?

I think it's because of the angle it`s attached with. Once I get the truck out of storage I`ll try to remember to post a picture.

I would like too but it depends how cold it gets and how soon John, once it's too cold it'll then be on hold.

I`m sure I could keep you busy for a very long time John. My shoulder feels a bit better today, resting it most of yesterday seemed to help.

I need to keep occupied as well, just not sure at what during our cold winters.
