Convert Your Early Under-Floor Brake Master Cylinder to Firewall Mount

After OEMs moved away from mechanical brakes and switched over to “juice brakes” most retained the bottom hinged floor mounted pedal box and brake pedal with the then new hydraulic brake master cylinder located under the floor (mounted to the frame via a bracket). Hot rods and pre-1960s cars and trucks that feature the hydraulic brake master cylinder under the floor are not the most user serviceable system. They often require careful hydraulic system consideration, including things like residual pressure valves, since the brake calipers or wheel cylinders are usually mounted higher than the master cylinder. Eventually, manufacturers relocated the master cylinder up high on the firewall and utilized a top mounted pivot location for the brake pedal. This provided more comfort for the driver and easier service of the brake system with the master cylinder easily accessed under the hood. Our universal firewall mount brake pedal assembly allows you to convert any vehicle over from a floor mounted pedal box to a firewall mount setup with a little fabrication effort.

Laser Cut 1/4-inch Steel Plate Construction Supports Manual and Power Brake Options

Relocating your brake master cylinder to the firewall on a vehicle with under-floor master cylinder requires some fabrication skills, as this is not a direct application specific bolt-on procedure. Our firewall mount brake pedal assembly is built from 1/4-inch-thick high strength steel sheet and formed to a compact 5-inches wide by 5-1/8-inches tall. The 13-inch-long brake pedal is spaced 4-inches from the firewall mounting surface and features a 6:1 pedal ratio. The use of bronze bushings provides smooth operation in our universal pedal assembly. The universal pedal box mount surface includes both standard 3-3/8-inch power brake booster four-hole mount (these are also the holes used for mounting the pedal assembly), as well as the standard 3-1/4-inch center-to-center spaced bolt holes for manual brake master cylinder mounting.

Protected by a durable zinc plated finish (we also offer a black powder coated version as well) that compliments any interior, installation of the universal pedal assembly will require careful measuring for placement on your firewall, drilling of mounting holes and master cylinder or brake booster pushrod pass-thru hole, and possibly reinforcing your firewall with additional material if your firewall is of a thinner gauge steel that will flex under pedal application. For master cylinders with included/integral pedal pushrod, a threaded clevis will be required to attach to the new firewall mounted brake pedal. Additionally, if your choice of master cylinder does not include a pushrod, you’ll need to grab our replacement master cylinder pushrod to use with the previously mentioned clevis. Obviously, power brake boosters are fitted with a pushrod already and should be good to go with this firewall mount brake pedal assembly conversion.

Uses Industry Standard Bolt on Brake Pedal Pads For 1/2-inch Mounting Holes

We offer over two dozen bolt-on brake pedal pad options that makes finishing your firewall-mount brake pedal conversion a breeze. We also have matching gas pedals you’ll find in both firewall and floor mount options to compliment your new brake pedal setup as well. Lastly, if you’re a three-pedal fan, don’t worry, we got you covered with our universal fit firewall mount brake and clutch pedal assembly option as well that is setup for hydraulic clutch master cylinders (making it a perfect option for those wishing to convert to hydraulic clutch operation too!).
