Making my own floor braces and flooring. Just mocking up with 1/2" plywood for now.
The finished floor will be made with 5/8" DryPly plywood.
With the column centered with the cluster, it just didn't give me the needed room.
Thanks to a few HAMB members, I found out the Ford originally offset the column to the left of the cluster.
This is what I needed to do, but still keep the column centered with the cluster. Time to start cutting.
I moved the cluster over 1 - 1/16" too and added a filler piece to the right side.
Since I started making the doghouse, I realized I needed more room for the throttle.
My boot would touch the steering u-joint when I lifted off the pedal.
Now I am happy with the throttle pedal room. That little bit made a big difference.
Now that I am happy with my right foot and throttle position, I am wanting more room for my left foot.
I need more room to the left of the brake pedal to rest my foot while driving.
It just doesn't feel right resting in front of the brake pedal.
I want my legs stretched out in a more natural position. Let's see what I can do about this?
