I understand the problem.  If the pedals are mounted in the position
specified in the CBM this should not occur.  There should be just sufficient
length to the STBD foot well for the spring mount to give adequate tension.
I am surprised that you are looking for as much as 3inch of extension.  Have
you any idea why this has happened?


If you have mounted the pedals further forward (as I did with  LAA Mod
10665) then you may need to mount the forward end of the STBD spring forward
of the foot well by about 1inch.  I used a small piece of AL angle bolted
(with two bolts) to the foot well.  This was not specifically covered in the
Mod application but my inspector was happy with it.
