I've got a small problem in that my clutch pedal has been resting about 2" -3" closer to me while driving? It is no longer even with the brake pedal.

Any help in how this can be fixed?

there is a peddle stop that has either moved or rusted.. if you look behind peddle you will see a 13mm bold with a L shaped tab.. WHat ever you do.. do not let the peddle fall fwd towards you when you are fixing it because the cable will come off the end..

Interesting....Thanks for the response and the pictures. I would imagine the Berrien chassis would have this as well?

My Berrien chassis did not come with one. I fabbed a stop and bolted it through the floor.
