Brake pedal bushing source

[Kurt Combs]

Help, I can't seem to find a source for the bushing that the brake pedal pivots on under the dash. Mine is worn and it allows the brake lights to remain on. Anyone know where I can find one?

Thanks, Kurt

The original lead bushings are tough to find. I replaced mine with collard ball bearings.

Where do you find those?

This guy can install them for you, or he'll sell them to you to install at home.
The Plastic bushings can be purchased at a parts store from the Help! racks, or you can get them from LMC or Dennis Carpenter.

That's pretty cool, I'll have to give him a call. I know the bushings in my hanger assembly could use some help.

Dennis Carpenter would be my best guess for the lead bushings.

I know one thing...If you have shot bushings,
I wouldn't wait too long to replace them.
In my 68, those had wore out, and I never
realized it until the rough edge of the steel mount
sawed my clutch pedal shaft off.. I had to go to a
junkyard to get a new one. And these are not
easy to find in most average junk yards, as
most have scrapped the old cars. But I finally
found one at a junk yard that deals more in older
stuff, and he had not one, but three of them.
