Cant fit my foot between the brake and trans tunnle
Ok so just got a 89 xj 4.0 5 speed 4x4 and I can't get my foot on the gas with out hitting the brake because it is so close to the trans tunnel. Is there another year of peddles that I can swap in to fix this problem? If not I'm going to have to sell this thing because it's so bad.

I got it stupid cheap that's the only resin I got this one. If I'm in regular tennis shoes it's not bad but my work boots I have to take off so I don't wreck it lol

I know what you mean. I have size 11 EEE shoes and it is tight. I was thinking of taking the sawz-all to the brake pedal and making it narrower. If you see a Chevette in your travels, they had the same issue. I think they were leaving too much room for the clutch.
