    I need to lower the brake pedal to make it easier to control the breaking in slow moving traffic ,however I do not know the shortest linkage.

    My current linkage is 12 inches long but do not know the measurements of any replacements available.

    It would be appreciated if somebody knows the masurements of the rods available as the catelogue only statrs -1 to + 4

    Help!

    Default Lowered brake rod

    I have a #3 brake rod laying on my desk. It measures 16" center to center on the holes in clevis ends. I changed to a #4 to fit my floor boards.

    Check out https://www.rattlebars.com/spyder/spyder.html for instruction to lower a standard brake pedal position.

    I am trying to purchase a linkage rod about 10.5 inches long , rather than increasing the height of the rubber foot peg , but cannot determine the type available from BRP

    Here is a free and easy solution that may do the job. Remove the rod and drill the same size hole just behind the original one in the front yoke. Then attach the brake pedal arm to it. It's worth a try.
