If so how much adjustment is there?
Thanks

On the clutch and brake there is a set nut on the back of the rod going into the master cylinder in the footbox. You can loosen this nut and then twist the rod in and out to raise and lower the pedals. The throttle does not have much adjustment due to the nature of getting open full throttle.
Good luck, James

They're all adjustable, you adjust them with your feet: the right one causes whiplash, the middle one trys to slam your face into the dash, left side makes the engine pur at any speed.Yep all the adjustability you need!!

Yup, what jus bit said. The gas height is adjustable with the throttle cable but be sure to put a stop behind the pedal so you don't over extend the cable linkage. So the answer to your question is yes, exactly which pedal you're talking about requires a different answer.

Might sound silly, but you know the driver's seat is adjustable, right?

Crap, I always thought that lever was for the ejection seat option. |

OMG, I hope Excaliber doesn't start on the problems with BDR pedals or footbox space. I'd bet he has a statistic about how many posts there are that complain about BDR pedals. Then we will explain that they are adjustable and we'll get accused of being elitist BDR defenders and Cashburn and him might get into a fight.

Why must you muddy up this thread as well? 
Why don't you just PM your concerns to him? |

now I just wish I could raise the clutch pedal so I don't have to sit as close to the steering wheel and still get full extension,maybe a nice aluminum block put on the pedal.

a mechanic friend of mine came over today and adjusted all three of my petals up about 2 inches, what a difference now I can have the seat back and feel like I'm in a spacious cockpit even with my short legs
