Dual master cylinder pedal set

Just curious. Has anyone built one? In looking around it looks like this may not be cost effective to do, but was curious if anyone tried.

Oh yes. I have. Bought just the masters and the balance bar, and fab'd the rest.

Because "off the shelf" didn't exactly fit.

Clearly this would be a fun project. The tricky part is; can you trust your life and that of others with your mechanical design, fabrication and welding skills and knowledge?

I design and fabricate for a living and brake system components make me a little wary. When I designed and made suspension uprights/caliper mounts/brake rotor hats and specified a rotor design to made by Coleman I checked the safety factor on everything over and over. On the car's shakedown I cleared traffic on track and worked up to max braking with no one else around. I disassembled everything after every weekend the first season and inspected thoroughly.

So if you're 100% sure it's within your abilities and your time is cheap or free, have at it.

I think the Wilwood stuff is so good and so cheap (aimed at the oval track crowd) that it's a no-brainer.

Wilwood from Speedway Motors

I bought mine out of a wrecked circle track car - these things get banged up a lot around here and I think I paid $50 for the Wilwood pedal set, balance bar with 3 masters attached to it. They are only $300 or so new and masters are $60 each. Rebuild kits are $15.

So... unless it needed to be special for fitting in a strange space I can't see why you would.
