Hey guys, does anyone know if I'm missing an inner bushing or collar on my rear brake pedal assembly? The mounting bolt/pivot bolt does not appear to have an inner bushing or collar which is causing issues with my brake pedal. If I tighten the bolt down enough to eliminate the wiggle, it binds. If I loosen it enough to undo the binding, it wiggles on the mounting bolt too much. It appears that there should be a bushing or collar around the bolt on the inner side of the pedal that the pedal could pivot on, and also would allow you to tighten up the pivot bolt without causing binding.
<edited, removed erroneous info>
I disassembled everything, cleaned and removed the white grease, re-greased with waterproof bearing grease, installed the helper spring, same results. Either binding, or wiggling.
You can see on this pic the gap between the bolt and the inner pivot hole and the bolt is offset to one side and has plenty of room to move side to side.
Everything cleaned up, lubed and reinstalled.
