Clutch Stop part

Porsche-poor · 11-09-2004, 06:54 AM

Anyone have a part number or know if this can be fixed. I know I'm missing the rubber piece. Got to digging in the floor board last night and it looks like the former owner left it this way for some time. The floor board is even cracked on the left side where they tried to push it through the floor.

Thanks

mine is missing too, so I am gonna bump this up.

if we can't find this item, we'll have to look for a piece of real thick rubber and then cut it to fit

I've ordered and received these; both the bracket and the replaceable rubber stop. I'll look up and post the part numbers tonight if someone else doesn't do it first. Jim

Thx Jim!

BTW, in another post you mentioned your car was in No. Cal. What's up? Is it getting some special treatment that can't be done in NM? IF so, can you tell us what it is, and how exotic it is?

It's getting a mechanical engineering degree with my son at UC-Davis; he mostly restored the car. Jim

Great, I look forward to those numbers!!!!

Good to hear. I'm assuming its the '74 you mentioned you'd reconstructed. Of course, at UCD he will have to run it on PV panels, or bio-fuels....

Stop (metal bracket): 901.423.360.00
Rubber profile (bumper) that fits in stop: 901.423.392.00

In the interest of completeness here are the fasteners that attach the stop to the floor board:

Toothed lock washer (A5.3 DIN6797 phr - 2 required): 900.114.009.01

Thanks!

I am REALLY glad I still have the metal piece - its over $45 at Pelican....

the rubber stop .... Part Superceded to 90142339100

Yep, if one has the stop it may be worthwhile carefully reshaping it to hold the rubber bumper; it appears the bumper slips out and then that section of the stop becomes mashed by the pedal arm.

Thanks for the part number. I think I will try and reshape it and add the rubber piece.

This is an old thread, but I just finished rebuilding my '82 SC driver's floorboard, which was cracked at the clutch pedal opening, broken at both tabs at the top and delaminated in many places. It was also missing the rubber clutch stop. In effect, the floorboard was holding up the carpet and doing little else in terms of performance.

I used laminating epoxy to re-glue the plywood floorboard in its weak spots, and to mount two new plywood tabs to the top section so it would mount correctly. To further reinforce the floorboard, I fiberglassed both sides with 4 or 5 oz. cloth (the type you get at the auto parts store) and laminating epoxy. This takes time, but the end result is a very strong floorboard.

For the missing rubber clutch pedal stop part, I cut a piece from a rubber plug from Home Depot (cost: $2.50) using a fine-bladed coping saw. This piece is just slightly wider than the metal bracket. Using a screwdriver, the new rubber stop presses into the travel-adjustment bracket. Some work with a Dremel sanding drum finished the shaping of the rubber stop.

The end result: My clutch travel is dead-on and my floorboard is good to go for many, many miles.

It's fun being cheap.
