Xf Manual Conversion

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

I've got an Automatic Xf that I've put T5 into. Found it near impossible to find manual pedal box from wreckers. 

What's the best solution for the pedal box or are there any products that have worked for you?

Not a huge fan of going hydraulic setup because of the price

 

Thanks :)

you could try ringing Rusty Ford Wreckers in Campbelfield https://www.facebook.com/groups/539507089467774

Scotty XDF Wreck in Qld for the parts. https://www.facebook.com/Xdfwreck

 

you can convert the auto pedal box with a mal wood pedal pin kit and pedal but he only list EB ones(not sure if they are same) https://malwoodauto.com.au/clutch-forks-parts/

The manual cable type pedal box has a little pivot shaft and reinforcing plate spot welded to it, the auto pedal box just has a hole punched where the shaft would go on the manual version. I made up my own pivot on my EF pedal box that bolted into said punched hole. Without the reinforcing plate, the pedal box started fatiguing and cracking around the pivot after a few years.

The pedal boxes are the same manual or auto. You only need another pedal.......................I think.🙄

 

 

auto pedal box doesn't have the pin as gerg said above.. (hydraulic swings off a longer shaft that the brake pedal also swings on.., the cable one swings from a separate pin, Mal Wood has a pedal pin kit for EB etc.. My brother made his own for $10 that lasted 3yrs.. 

 

i welded a plate on the back of mine in XF because i'd had several cracked(bought them with cracks)

i fully welded this plate(just tacked in this photo)
