Foot Pedal Emergency Brake Relocation

[knever3]

I don't like my emergency brake pedal, it's always in the way of resting my foot.  Have you seen someone use a manual hand one from a Toyota or something similar?  Mine isn't even hooked up right now since the Dana 35 backer plates are wollowed out and I probably need new lines anyway.  I wanted to remove it all together and get one to mount somewhere else.  I want to stick with my bench by the way so the tunnel mount isn't an option.

The toyota one is interesting, though Ive never had one apart to know how it mounts or anything. might be something to look into though it might also be more work than its worth. For those who don't know the toyota one, it mounts  in the dash and is pulled straight out and twisted to unlock and reset. There are a few compaies making electric e-brakes now too. Might be able to mount one of those under the bench on the floor. I saw that show Vegas Rat Rods built a car around one for the owner of a company that builds those. Let us know what you end up doing.
