Gday all
Question regarding my grandfathers 1972 esky. Apart from the rest of the problems I am slowly rectifying, the brake pedal feels loose on the pivot bar. If you follow what I mean. There is a single bar which holds the brake, accellerator and clutch pedals (from memory). They are all on bushes, but the brake pedal has excessive side to side movement which leads me to believe the bush is worn. So, anyone experienced this, and any ideas where to get the parts to fix it? also anyone with a brake booster dead or alive lying around? Cheers BRad |

if the pin and pedal parts are worn they should be replaced
if not to serious ... felt washers or flat washers from the plumbing and hard ware dept --- might take up the side to side movement

Ok thanks. So to replace, I guess second hand is the only way to go, hey?
