brake pedal question

I have wondered if it were possible to get the brake pedal closer to the floor of my truck. It sticks out quite a ways and am wondering if there is anything i can do to get it closer to the floor that dosen't have to do with cutting and welding the pedal arm. Also at full on brake. the pedal is 2-3 inches of of the floor. Thanks

Garth, You can drill new holes and move the pedal bolt down the brake rod.

There is an adjustable arm in the brake booster and this can be used to adjust pedal height. You will have to readjust your brake light switch after. I've never made the adjustment myself.
