Abstract
A unitary brake pedal spacer for use in a brake pedal assembly. The brake pedal assembly includes a brake pedal having a tubular section which is attached between two opposing side walls of a brake pedal bracket. The brake pedal spacer is inserted within the interior of the tubular section, and the tubular section is then inserted between a pair of opposing apertures formed in the sidewalls of the brake pedal bracket. A shoulder bolt is inserted through the brake pedal spacer and a nut is threaded onto an end of the shoulder bolt to secure the assembly. The brake pedal spacer is a unitary apparatus which provides both spacer and bushing functionality for the assembly.
