The studs that these places had were all 1/4". So, if there is room, I'll put nuts and washers behind the floor on the studs I have and, push come to shove, I'll cut the threaded part off of the studs I have and weld 5/16" bolts on to that. There's more than one way to skin a cat!...lol Thanks to everyone for the help, it was much appreciated!
Not sure if it will work, but you can maybe use the early bolt down type pedal. For some reason they used that one on later 4x4 trucks and the hole spacing is the same. You would have to get different pedal but hardware would be generic. Used to have trouble with the pedal coming off the studs on my old 66, but not an issue on my K10.
