Third gen pedal u-bolt

Hi guys!

I am doing a t-56 swap on my car and I was wondering if I can use "normal" bolt to fix the clutch and brake pedal to the firewall or if I absolutly need to use a u-bolt?

Thanks!

we used normal bolts on mine beacuse my setup did not come with a U-bolt. Works fine.

I wold suggest though that you make a backing plate for the firewal to keep it from flexing.

A backing plate is not necessary if you have the 2 little braces that go from the pedal pivot bolt to the U-bolt.
