Brief Description:    Modification made to rudder pedals. Extension of
One of the modifications that I had seen online was to make an extension to the rudder pedals. The extensions that I looked at online where bolting on a 2" to 3" lower extension, angled at 40 degrees.
After reading up on pros and cons I decided I would add the extensions. But instead of bolting on the pieces I decided I would simply weld on the extensions.
I made a pattern at workwith a 3/4" overlap on the back of the pedals and extending the pedals down 2 1/2" I sheared out the two pieces from .125 moved to the break to ad the 40 degree bend. Welded the pieces into place.
Then I ground down the weld to blend into the rudder pedal. Drilled in a couple lighting holes for appearance and reduce a few ounces.
I really like how they turned out
