ABSTRACT:
A pedal adjuster for adjusting the position of pedals within a vehicle. The pedal adjuster assembly includes a frame member mounted to a support and a pedal arm pivotally mounted to the frame. The frame includes a pair of sides having slots to receive a clevis. The pedal arm is mounted between the sides and mounted to the clevis. A screw rod is actionable to move the pedal arm with respect to the frame to adjust the position of the pedal arm. The pedal arm angles forwardly and downwardly from the pivot point to adjust the pedal through a arc having a relatively linear adjustment path.
