Brake pedal question
« on: March 18, 2018, 02:09:52 AM »
I noticed I have side to side play in my brake pedal, is there something I can do to take out the play? I haven't looked into it yet. Thanks

The pedal assy pivots on 2 plastic bushings; which in your case are probably toast.   Those can still be sources thru MOPAR - part number J3225981.   You'll need 2 of them.

Oh yeah; Crown is repopping them, so you can buy them for $2.00 to $3.00 plus postage.   Don't pay the ripoff $15 or so some vendors are asking!
