Adjusting Foot Rests

Good morning Maurice screw both extensions together first you need a locknut on both sides of the rod
 
you need a locknut on both sides it goes next to the square at both ends you have the locknut in the wrong place you can get a nut replacement at a hardware store try screwing the extensions together first the front is a reverse thread make sure that you have the correct extension in front
 
an added thought is if you do not have the locking nut for the reverse thread you will probably have to go back to dealer for one
 
I don't know how many times i have bought infinitely better hardware, nuts and bolts in a hardware store for 1/3 of the price As long as you know what you need you will get better quality and choice of Hex, Torx screw/bolt head shape etc.
 
good Morning Maurice
i am pretty sure i have the correct nuts if u r missing one. i have both left hand and right hand if u would like to come over we could set it up should not take long.

Thank you Herman but after speaking with Steve, I think I just used the wrong lock nut up front out of the 2 supplied. Later today will try the other one, should work. I just learned today that what reverse nut meant. Not just turn in counter clockwise direction! Plus I am assuming the bolt is a reverse bolt! Otherwise the incorrect nut would have worked. Haha.

the way i think that works
if u loosen the two most outer nuts then u can turn the shaft/extensions to raise or lower the shift pedal.
 
ps i
guess i should explain
by having the left hand thread and the right hand thread that makes it possible to adjust the shifter height with out removing any of the linkage.
 
Hey Maurice, throw up a photo of the final linkage configuration. I think I'd like to try the forward position as well. Also, I'm curious if the forward position would reduce boot rubbing in corners.
