will a clutch pedal set up in a 1972 pinto fit a 1974-80 pinto???
my guess would be yes. but not sure - have a 72 that I am parting out and another member is looking for the clutch pedal set up - don't want to sell something that wont work!!
thanks for the info!!
-
I think they may fit some early 74's but not the ones built later than mid-74.
-
ok great to know - and that sucks!! guy had a 77 so not going to work then, is it very far off or just a little fab work?
-
I don't know the exact differences but when Pinturbo75 brought me my 74 wagon body he explained that early 74's took 71-73 pedals & mid-74 & later took a different set. He took the pedals out of mine to use in another car so I'm not even sure which ones I need. I have a late set but no clue if those are the ones I'm gonna need.
-
got ya, I figured if I removed with the mounts then it would be a easy removal and easy install for the other guy!!
cragars have been hard to find - ebay has been dead for 13" cragars!! found a set in ill but my buddy in Chicago is still 3 hours away so no go on those!
will keep looking!
-
cant pm you did more then 5 in an hour! that kills me!!
but any ways was going to sell to the other guy if he doesn't want them will work out a deal with you..\
-
I didn't know there was a PM limit LOL. Let me know on the pedals. Like I said, I'll pick em up just in case I need the early set for mine. I have 2 sets of late pedals so I'm sure that means I need the other ones.
-
I hear that - well if this guy needs the late model ones ill give him your number to get them from you if you like - let me know
-
I need to wait till I get the last 2 cars done before selling them. One set is for power brakes & the other is manual. I don't know which way I'm going yet.
-
I think FINDING them will be the biggest issue regardless of the year. I have spent a month trying to find some pedals to convert a 76 bobcat to manual. They just ain't out there. I may have to settle for the 4 speed Pinto I found. I really wanted that Bobcat. It's a shame the pedals don't interchange with any other model.

Pinto pedals should fit Bobcats. I've seen a couple late sets on ebay already this year.

When I was looking for pedals for my '73 I was warned that there were four different pedals used on Pinto's/Bobcat's.
1. 71-73 was one type.
2. 74 to ?? manual brake was another
3. 74 to ?? power brake was another
4. Don't know.
Also, just a guess but Mustang II pedals might work. For me the bad news was I bought 79-80 Pedals for my 73. The good news was Fred Morgan needed them and swapped me for a 71-73 set.
-
THANKS FOR ALL THE INFO GUYS!! WELL ANY ONE WITH A EARLY I HAVE A SET OF PEDALS FOR SALE THEN!!!
TAKE CARE

If I remember correctly, the Mustang II pedals are a different length than the Pinto's. They look the same until you get them side by side. I want to say the Mustang II pedals are longer. It has been quite a few years though since I have had a set side by side. I wish I would have taken a picture.
