Default 88 Cherokee pedal setup

So the brake pedal is too close to my gas pedal on my 88, my boot can't hit my gas pedal without hitting the brake and my clutch pedal is pretty close to my brake. Has anyone had this problem and maybe knows an easy fix?

I have the same problem, the older cherokee's weren't designed for bigger feet. I'm not sure if the 97+ pedals could be swapped in or not.
Do you also have the problem of kicking the fuse panel when you push in the clutch? I've broken a lot of fuses that way.

I've kinda had that issue with my clutch, and my boot size is only 12US. I haven't had that issue with my gas pedal though, it seems to be way behind the brake pedal so i have to twist my root to touch both.

I haven't had that problem with the fuse box, I'm gonna check into swapping the pedals from a 97' though and see if it works

I've actually had bad dreams over that! Lol. Now try an MG Midget!
