I am not sure what you mean by "in the rails" but try Richard Lacy at [email protected]. He has a kit that lets you use the original pedals and a hydraulic master cylinder.

I used Richard's master cylinder kit in my 34 and I am very happy with it.

He is Ford Barner also.

Richard's kit is great, if you want to do it without any permanent modifications to the car - no drilling, no welding, no moving the battery, etc. But, as always there is more than one way to skin a cat. I think it was 'duece lover' that once had an Ansen bracket for 33-34's. It is very simple, and could be easily fabricated. I assume the original Ansen bracket is very rare?? If anyone has one of these brackets, maybe they could post a picture ??? (just an idea...)

Thanks again to those who continue to recommend our stuff!!! I will get info to Trevor tomorrow; if it is RHD, can handle that too for 33-34, 35-36 and 37-38's. I want to make RHD version for 32's but need to get ahold of some RHD 32 pedals... Richard

I've used Richard's kits on several cars and I can say that if the bolts don't just drop right in when you install his parts, you'd better get your frame checked. Excellent quality parts, excellent fit and finish! Thanks, Richard!

Thanks Terry for posting the pictures... someday I will figure it out...

Thanks Randy for your continued support!

Don't need a drill or a saw or a welder to install - uses all factory holes and the
original pedals.

The ones that hung too low were the ones that used the original mechanical
cross-shaft to operate the pushrod, which in turn required mounting the MC
waaaay down. Mine is a couple of inches higher up, and shielded by the center
of the X as shown in the photos.
