Hi Gary

Thought we were talking about the same issue. Just to confirm it is the clutch peddle that you are having problems with, correct?

The brake peddle is a press fit with a clamp bolt along with a key in the shaft. It should be a tight fit.

I assume that you have done all this but just to be sure I'll mention them anyway. Key way is clean the wooddrift key is not messed up and the key way and wooddrift key are lined up. Remove the clamp bolt while pushing or tapping the peddle onto the shaft.

Now at the clutch end or end of the shaft toward the engine, install the brake linkage lever on and push it flush with the shoulder of the shaft.

Did you install a new bushing in the clutch peddle?

My clutch peddle has a lot of side slop as the clutch peddle bushing is worn. Thank fully the shaft is not. Even with that wear in the bushing it is a hard push to get the peddle on or off the shaft.

I am planning to replace the bushing once the bushing is in place I'll ream the inside of the bushing to be a close fit on to the shaft.

The picture below shows the clutch end of the shaft you can see just a little wear in the shaft but the more important thing is that the shaft is round. While the old busing is now egg shaped. If you are reusing the original bushing think about the wear pattern relative to the shaft which would be with both peddles basically in line.
