My B2400 shares the same pedal design with many models.

There has been times while operating the tractor where my foot has slipped off the rubber forward or reverse pad at the most inopportune times making my heart rate significantly increase.

It only took me 2 years to fix that problem:D

I started making this pedal and didn't take pic's until I had finished it...so I'll show you what I did.
Pic's are "clickable" to get a bigger/more defined pic


Here is the finished pedal, painted and covered with some anti-slip tape.

The pedal is made from 3/32" (13 gauge) sheet metal that I bent to the appropriate angles, matching the forward and reverse pedal angle.






I drilled three 1/4" holes (2 in the forward pedal and 1 in the reverse pedal).

I welded 1/2" square stock to each side of the pedal to stiffen it up. You can see that in this pic.





I secured it the the factory pedals using three 1/4"x 20 button head bolts + nuts.

The new modified pedal feels real comfortable under my foot and I feel it gives me finer control over my forward and reverse speeds.









I know this is a pretty simple mod, but i thought I'd show what I did.

When the boot is a bridge to far.

Nice mod and it will help regardless of foot size. Nicely done.
