I hope someone out there can help me with this. I put
a 67 Mustang M/C in my 65 Conv and now the brake pedal
is about an inch lower than the clutch. Does anyone
know where I can get an adjustable M/C rod or know of a
fix for this???? Thanks Rick

I've also read some cut the rod, tap some threads and use a turnbuckle
and a couple of nuts to lock the turnbuckle. No rocket science.

Agreed. If you look at the picture it appears that the one that I
pointed out is a standard part that's been sectioned, threaded and
outfitted with a tube nut and a jam nut. At least that's how I'd
approach it...

At any rate, now you know where to buy one if'n ya get the hankerin'. winking smiley
