Title: Pedals?
Post by: 1955CJ-5 on September 02, 2013, 06:04:40 PM

I think I've looked this up before, but I can't find it now....

Which way do they go?  I think the up-turned lip should be away from the steering tube, as the tube helps keep your feet from sliding to the inside...but then the lip sort of gets in the way...

And look at the wear. I know we used the green jeep on the ranch, lots of stops and starts and very short driving distance in between..

The CJ-5 with the green floor has about 46K on the odometer, the 3A with the plywood floor shows about 49k if i remember right..

Your 3A pic is correct. The up-turned lips go towards the steering column.

Thanks!.....I'll need to swap the one's on the green jeep.....that way it will be easier to "heel and toe" shift!
