Has anyone ever moved their pedals farther away from the driver seat? Anyone with long legs? I putseats in my truck that move me to far forward. Any ideas?  :flamer:

It would make your life much much easier to make some mounts to move your seats farther back...the pedals would require some interesting fabing.

no joke. this is gonna be hard. i've made some brackets that move the seats all the way back. the seats just have to much lean. i've even bent the seats to flaten them out.   :hammerhead:

they are the poly buckets from summit. ( hey i didn't have any seats ) drivin is fine. i drive 110 miles a day in my truck, so its nice to strech out. it was tight with the old stock seats.
i did think about choping out the back....  i think i can move the pedals 3 inches ... i think.

Come to think of it, is it actually the position of the pedals, or are you hitting your knees on the lower dash or steering column?
