Question GRRRRR!!! Brake and Clutch pedal assembly giving me fits!!!

Ok, I had a tilton hanging brake pedal. Decided to put a Toploader in it early this year. The brake pedal hung pretty low, but I figured while I was at it, I would drop the foot box and all would be good....

Well, I dropped the footbox where I could, but the space between the framrails was positioned where it would help with my brake pedal, but not the clutch pedal and I already bought and installed the dual hanging pedal unit of the one that was already in there... #@&$!!!!!

Here's the picture of my assembly on right.


So here's the problem that I thought maybe I had solved, but....The pedal assembly hangs from the inside of the foot box, so I thought, well, I guess I can mount it on top of the footbox in the engine compartment, but there's a couple obstacles I think I can overcome, but it messes up the outside look of the footbox I just wrapped nicely with brushed aluminum....

Another option I guess would be floor mounted pedals, but that will push the brakline near the header (guess I could insulate the line). If i do this, how are the floor mounts to be mounted? Flat on the floor, or between the framerails under the footbox (below floor level), or what?

Floor Mount assembly


Can you guys post some pics and explanations as to how you have yours set up?

Thanks for your input!
