very nice~! i bet its like a whole new truck driving that around.

 

good job!

I can't wait to do my swap!

 

What is that handle above the clutch? My 1990 got it and I have no idea what it does.

 

very nice, make sure you go 500 miles without abusing it so it can break in properly.

 

looks great,i bet you will enjoy it

 

That handle is for the fuse panel

 

Hey bud I got a question for you. Did you use the mustang clutch pedal or the ranger pedal and just adapted stuff on the mustang pedal. I couldnt figure it out in you post. You wouldnt happen to have a picture of the whole pedal assembly before you put it back in do you? Did you have to reinforce the firewall at the adjuster?

Im going to change over to a cable set up on mine. Im about tired of the hydraulic bs/

 

haha sweet someone actually looked at this thread!

I used a ranger pedal assembly so that it bolted right onto the brake master cylinder with no troubles. I also had a mustang clutch assembly from the junkyard that I hacked apart and used as a guide as to how the quadrant had to be set up relative to the pedal. I made a shaft for the quadrant and pedal that went through the brake pedal, the brake pedal pivots around the clutch pedal. I also updated the quadrant to a billet aluminum one and got rid of the self adjusting stock plastic quadrant. The worst part was having to cut a hole in the firewall to mount the cable adjuster. That part was terrible, was far from easy, alot of hacking and fitting done to it, and if I had to do this again I would do it with a hydraulic set up. As far as reinforcing the firewall, I had to weld on a 1/4" plate for the adjuster to fit into as well as mount it on an angle, but that runs into alot of fitment issues with the wiper motor.

 

So how do you like it?

 

Now that I have everything working properly, the clutch pedal throw adjusted and have it full disengaging its amazing! So much better than that POS AOD, I have alot more control over the truck than I do before. I would have never been able to get around the dunes with the AOD in the truck. And one of the best parts about the swap, is i'm getting 4 mpg more than before!

 

I am glad you are enjoying it, and 4mpg increase is amazing!

I miss my stick shift ranger. I know what you mean about control too, I loved towing with a stick. It was so much easier than letting the auto do its preprogrammed BS.

 

What year mustang did you get the pedals off of
