Vegtable farmer Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Does anyone make a bushing to take the slop out of the clutch pedal? Something that you could have the pedal machined out then the bushing installed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegtable farmer Posted April 29, 2021 Author Share Posted April 29, 2021 Wore but not as bad as the pedal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoshoe Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I used to do that. Bore hole 1/8" over and roll a bushing out of 16 guage steel and press it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitty Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Replace the shaft when putting rebushed pedal on for much better results and longer lasting 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dell Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I got a bushing from them( Pilot knob Restoration) for my m . It worked great. I have a mill to bore it out, any machine shop could do it for you, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Kirsch Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 If you know someone with a lathe they can make you a bushing. When they have a lathe they usually have a milling machine too, and can bore out your pedal. All you'd really need to provide is the dimension of the shaft, or invite them over for a beer and have them measure it while they're there.

vtfireman85 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I sent my clutch pedal and shifter to Pilot Knob, had them back in a little over a week and they are like new, the shifter rebuild and repair parts from them were top notch, highly recommended. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars (midessa) Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Just take a piece of rebar and weld to the platform along side the clutch pedal, just make sure the piece is longer than the pedal travel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that on my super M only used a piece of flat iron works great keeps pedal in a straight push Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedar farm Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I didn't do it myself, but my sons 460 and 2 of my 560's have round bar stock welded to the platform as well. Works well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super A_sepa Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 My 300 had a piece of flat stock that bolted to the hydraulic reservoir and came out at about a 45 degree angle and then went back and under the platform and I think bolted to the spring holder on the brake housing. It worked the same as welding a rod on the platform but was removable if the pedal ever got bushed and looked much better than a chunk of steel scabbed on. It can be welded on nicely but I still hate the looks of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonyinca Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 My 400 and SMTA had same problem , Pilot Knob put them back yo new spec's much easier to clutch not to mention cleans tractor up as oppose to welded stuff hanging on side.
