Reply to "Thunder Ranch Pedal upgrade"

I just had a deeper look on your photos and I'm not so sure anymore, if you do not need all the space behind the brake pedal like it is in the position it is now. 

The background of my fear is:

In your car there is property the original beetle brake system with two break circles. this system has a second piston in the master break cylinder. If there is any leak in the one of the two breake circles the cylinder one will drop through to the second cylinder to make sure that you can at least brake on one circle.

For this safety feature you need z lot space behind the pedal to make tis extra way of the pedal possible.

Here at Volkswagen we called these system translated : two inline cylinder safety break cylinder. In the original beetles there was also a indicator lamp installed to show if both  of the circles are working well.

However,what  I wanna say is: please take care if you make any changes that in case your pedal will not end on the firewall an the car in the off-road area...

 

just saying...

hope you understand cause of my broken English 😀
