Clutch extender?

[TrishDrivesABronco]

Being 5'0", it's a mild struggle to press the clutch all the way down. Does anyone know of a specific Bronco clutch extender or any company that makes custom clutch extenders?

I tried to press my luck with this one and unfortunately failed.

An old buddy had absolutely blown up his left ankle while skiing competitively in the early 90's which resulted in his left leg being about 2" shorter than his right (entire ankle was removed).

He wasn't a tall man to begin with so he had one of those shoes with the super thick sole on it. Still refused to drive an automatic so he just used that big ol' clomper on it.

I would think that same "extender" you showed there would be a less obvious way to go. But you came for suggestions so here's a wild one. Have someone local to you 3d print a pedal cover that's X" tall (to fit whatever height you need) and include a small slot in the printing where you can run a worm clamp through the slot to secure it to the OEM pedal.

Also, post a pic of your rig! Curious if i've seen you driving around town as I work in Downtown Bellevue.

Surprisingly enough, this is the most decent picture I have. Just picked it up last Saturday, so you might have not seen me around yet.

But the chances are high that you’ve seen me in my other car!

Edit: Also, thank you for the suggestion, that’s a great idea!

If you picked it up from Ford of Bellevue, then I think I saw your car on the trailer on 116th since I have the exact same rig on order! Was that where your reservation was at?

Also, there aren't many matte blue E classes. I think I saw you 3 days ago taking SE 8th westbound and going past AquaQuip to circumvent 405 South via 118th.

I use adaptability pedals for the clutch on my 74 because it is so long and I'm short. They are pretty affordable and removable.

I actually ordered mine from the Kirkland dealership. I drive past AquaQuip all the time, so I'm pretty sure that was me. Wave next time!

Only if you use your turn signal!!!! HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!

Nice job on the order! I have the same rig on order at Bellevue, had a MY21 allocation and....... Still don't have a damn VIN or any clue when one might come.
