How has everyone else mounted theirs? The Tilton website says to use an M8 fastener and a large washer but surely the floor pan will flex on an Escort?

I was thinking about stitch welding two 6mm thick bars (similar to the files I've sat it on) to the floor and bolting the box to this, or is that a bit overkill.

Also, the pedals need to be vertical when depressed, so angled toward the driver when not pressed. Is that right?

 

T45 tubing tied into chassis rail and sill

 

I meant tunnel and sill

 

That looks the part. Do your feet sit on a false floor in front of the pedals?

 

You'll be surprised how much force you put through the pedal box


Mine is mounted on a false floor (approx 70mm high) and has similar bracing to MKs underneath. Held in place with high tensile socket cap bolts.

 

That looks good as well. I thought some "large washers" wouldn't do the job. Another bit of fab work to sort out! Good job I enjoy doing it!
