ABSTRACT:
An improved mounting assembly for mounting a foot-operated pedal to a bracket in an automobile has a retaining shaft having a portion with external threads. The foot-operated pedal preferably has an aperture therethrough with internal threads sized to engage the external threads of the retaining shaft. The retaining shaft is placed through the bracket and the aperture in the foot-operated pedal so that the foot-operated pedal is rotatably positioned on the external threads of the retaining shaft. The retaining shaft may be comprised of a first stud and a second stud. The bracket used in the vehicle may have a first flange and a second flange spaced apart a predetermined distance. Each flange has an aperture therethrough. The first stud extends only partially between the first and second flanges of the bracket. The second stud couples to the first stud through the opposite flange of the bracket than that which the first stud is mounted.
