Steve,

A couple of my cars are still using stock pedals too. They still use the cross tube (the one that the brake rods are attached to on both sides), and the master cylinder is mounted on the right side of the car behind the tube (about 6" inside of the frame rail). When you press on the brake pedal, there is a rod that moves the cross tube to actuate the brakes (or move the brake rods) on a stock Model A. So a tab was welded to the cross tube and a rod attached from the tab, and that pushes into the master cylinder, to actuate it.

I have seen other ways to do this with less linkage, but it seems to work.

If this doesn't make sense, PM me and I'll take a picture of the setup.

 

i hate the feel under my foot of threw the floor pedals so i went with a wilwood reverse mount set up with the clutch pedal included. plenty of room for the 5.1 to 1 ratio pedals in a 3 inch chaneled 2 inch sectioned 5 inch chopped model A pick up

 

Well my body is a 29 model a sedan, the frame is scratch built. But still a similar set-up to mine could be done on a stock a-frame. I used a 67 mustang drum/drum m/c and built my own mount & pedal.

I set mine up under the floor, and it worked out fine. Heres a few pics to give you and idea, hope it helps

crager, really like the idea of your set up but am gonna use the cross tube for the handbrake.would love to see some pics if it aint too much trouble!!

dodge, thats basically how i was thinking of doing it.was thinking of moving the rod tab on the pedal to the bottom and mounting the cylinder just infront of the mid crossmember.nice work btw
cheers steve

 

Steve, have you got everything you need to juice your brakes?

 

The pic showing the 33 Ford coupe has a single chamber M/C, but I haven't got a clue which one it is.

2nd pic showing a Deuce Factory bracket has a Mustang disc/drum M/C off to the left.
There's also a bracket that bolts to the frame bracket and supports the outer end of the pivot.

You can get a disc/drum M/C - from a Torino I'm fairly sure - that has outlets oriented toward the drivers frame rail when set up for hot rod use, M/C to the rear etec.
An advantage some times although the regular Mustang M/C with outlets pointing at the trans works fine.
All you need to do there is think about exhaust heat sources and run brake lines accordingly.

Fwiw, both of these disc/drum M/C's have 7/8" bores and work fine with 68-70 Mustang front discs and full size passenger car rear drum brakes.

 

alrite darren, think ive got it all, wheel cylinders are in and ive a choice of masters so just need to get cracking!!!!
cheers all steve
