One of the main advantages in moving to an aftermarket pedal box is it generally gives you the ability to adjust brake bias, which is simply the hydraulic pressure distribution between the front and rear brake circuits.
In this example the mechanism is quite clear to see, with a separate brake master cylinder for both the front and rear axles. Inside the brake pedal is a sliding bearing, by adjusting the threaded rod that you can see running through the middle of the brake pedal, the bearing can be adjusted to sit closer to either the front or rear brake master cylinders. This gives the driver the ability to modify the force distribution to both of the master cylinders, and therefore the hydraulic brake bias.
Can you guess the course Tim is working on right now? Hint, it's about brakes (not sure that is how hints work but I know you would have guessed the same anyway right 😅)
