Gen III Hemi Swap into TJ Reference Guide & Swap Info

@Daubie3 noticed & commented in my build thread that I'd installed the bracket upside down. So I flipped the bracket around and using the predrilled holes mounted the pedal.

But setup like this the pedal was rubbing on the floorboard near full throttle.

So I pulled the bracket back off and drilled new holes a little higher & just a little more away from the transmission tunnel.

This for me works a LOT better.

Does it sit more comfortable for you now?
It looks a lot better in the pictures..

It's better than it was when the bracket was turned upside down.

That's great!
I wasn't 100% sure but it looked upside down in your pictures.. I thought it's odd that it would actually be able to mount it either way..

I'll bet we're the only 2 ever that had it wrong the first time... 🤪

I'd looked everywhere trying to find something that showed which way it was supposed to mount and couldn't find it. So then I was trying to both ways and still couldn't figure it out. Then me trying to fit my foot in the area with it not bending at the ankle just made it worse.
