Dead Pedals

[longfiredragon]

I know this has been discussed. Not looking for do, or do not need one. I like having one for various reasons.

I am 6'1" and I was checking it out today as I drove down the road. No one can ever say the JL doesn't have deep floor space. With my seat all the way back I really had to push forward to get my foot up to the firewall.

Which is kinda my question, because I am thinking I might need a pedal that doesn't sit flat right up against the firewall or it will most likely be too far away. I no the M.O.R.E seems to be really popular, but, not sure I want the half sized pedal. I mean I have a full size foot, not a kids foot.

So what others have people used (that wasn't junk) that is a full pedal but that will adjust forward up a little from the firewall.

In a post on here I saw a few different types, but did not see anyone using the DV8? Anyone used the DV8, it appears to have some forward adjustment and I know thier stuff is usually good quality.

It may have been the the DV8 wasn't out when that post was started.

Anyway all input appreciated.

Thanks.

I really like mine, I didn't get the rubber pad and it works fine. I am 6'1".

I installed the quadratec dead pedal a couple weeks ago and love it.

Thanks and thanks for the pic. That for sure like it would do the trick.

I also have the Quadratec and I am 6 feet tall. It works great -- best easy mod I've done so far.

Another vote for Quadratech. It has 3 positions, flips up so you can easily clean the floors, super easy to instal, cheap.

I bought this one from amazon. obvi a no name brand, but it's super heavy and well built. I really wanted all black to match the AJT design shifters.

Can you lift it up to get the mat out?

 

[manapiko]

Yup, it swivels up nicely. You can potentially tighten it down more if need be, but I have it so you can lift it and it will stay up, to clean.

Add another vote to the 6'1" crew with the Quadratec -- it's great and easy to install. I would say just buy that and not think about it another second.

Aside but what flooring is that?

Armorlite. Love it too. Much more effort though required to install it than the dead pedal. I also put in Desert Does It seat jackers while doing the flooring.

Picture of the back seats for you as well.

This one is made of a solid block of aluminum. I am 5’9” with a long torso so I would actually prefer if it was not as deep. But overall has very solid feel.

Making me regret not ordering tan leather (add another expense though)
looks great.

First item I'm ordering for the JL is the flooring, going to be so wonderful with our life.


ON TOPIC, is there a dead pedal available that works with the manual? I couldn't figure out where to put my left foot when test driving one before ordering.
