Hi everyone! I was wondering if someone had resto pic's of a 4spd Charger w/o carpet as well as the pedal assembly prior to installing dash. I am convertering an auto on column to a 4spd. Not sure where the hump should exactly go and the pedal assembly. Could use the a pic of the Z-Bar set up as well. I know it sounds like alot but really could use the help. All the Best!   Joe     email: joeywheels831@aol.com    :cheers:

I've posted a bunch of pictures in similar threads but I don't have time to look them up right now. The hump can really only go in one spot as it's contoured to the floor. The hole in the floor can be cut by using the hump as a guide. The pedals use the same bracket as the auto pedals so they only fit one way as well. The z-bar bracket is a little trickier but not too hard.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

The tricky part concerning the Z bar is where to weld the frame bracket on.  There was a thread on this recently and a picture was posted showing exactly where this item needs to be placed.  Maybe someone remembers this and can post the thread containing it.

There are a lot of threads on this. I'll see if I can find one or two later. Here is a link to a few diagrams from a Moparts thread which may help. http://www.moparts.org/Tech/Archive/clutch/13.html  I do remember seeing another Moparts thread that showed the complete 4-speed install with photos.

Wow thank you guy's for the response's. I have found some post's containing this info. The question I have is can I install the clutch pedal,etc in the existing cage w/o removing the entire cage from the car? I will try to look up as many answer's I can through out this site and really appreciate all the help. All the Best, Joe :2thumbs:

I believe you can install the pedal w/o removing the "cage".  If you have the correct parts.  You need the end stamping that surrounds the clutch pedal and bolts to the "cage".  And you need the clutch and correct brake pedal.  The shaft that goes through them that they rotate on is longer on the 4-speed setup.  The clutch pedal has needle bearings in it (think /6 used bushings).  The non-clutch pedal "cage" you are starting with is exactly the same as the 4-speed one except, of course, it doesn't have the part that the clutch pedal rides in.  I don't know where you will get the parts to change your unit.  I have not seen such upgrade kits for sale.  Several outfits sell the whole ball of wax for something like $250------if they have one in stock.
