I've had mine for a few years and would buy it again; clutch and brake pedals feel nice and solid.

Worth every dollar - but buy it directly from Sam and save $15!

I bought from Hawks they had a video which helped my decision. 100% a quality piece. Install was super easy.

Like the idea of supporting the brake master as it hangs off the firewall.

I had a “ ford” that firewall cracked due to clutch pedal / pedal mounting hardware. Over time/ miles **** happens.

Can’t feel the difference - just an old guy spending my kids money.

I have one but haven't installed it yet. I've been doing business with Sam for over 15 years now. If he says it works...I'm very inclinded to believe him.

There's not a lot of companies I can say that about.
