Is there any way to tighnten the rear brake pedal? mine is really loose and it's staring to rub on the motor and rattle. I tried tighnening the screw that goes through it but it didn't seemed like it helped. thanks for any help

They wear out over time. The best thing you can do is get a new lever to alleviate the side to side motion, and install a Fasstco brake clevis to keep any up and down slack to a minimum.

They get a little floppy with time and you either have to replace the bolt, or the pedal, or both. You can also upgrade to a billet pedal for some $$$. I just let mine flop until it gets real bad. Also, be careful cranking down on that bolt. They are prone to break, or break the little welded nut off the subframe, which both suck.:rolleyes:

yeah it doesn't look like the best design. I guess I'll deal with i for now and deal with it in the future. idk why they didn't just stick with the one like the 400ex has..
