1971/72 gas pedal Assembly - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does any company sell a stock style gas pedal assembly for 1971/72 trucks. I like the cable assembly compared to the rods and linkages. Thanks

The mounting between the two pedals (67-70 rod) (71-72 cable) is different. There was a board member that made an adapter plate that I owned at one time, but I sold it off a while back, and he no longer is an active member here.

Lokar makes a billet assembly in both polished, and black for both assembly styles that uses a cable. They are the only ones I know of that makes a bolt-in kit for this. Otherwise, you'd have to go to a junkyard and pull a pedal assembly from any 71-87 truck, or van (the mounting is all the same, just a different plastic pedal on the trucks) and fab your own bolting system.

hope that helps!

My advise and what I did was to get a complete assembly off the board and convert. There is a thread on the board that provides a very simple conversion method that does not require an adapter. If memory serves me right it's titled no drill conversion. Good luck

Thank you for the Replys. I will look into the conversion. I might be able to find the whole setup locally.

I just installed the Lokar one a couple weeks ago. Very nice quality. I got it from Jegs.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
