Abstract
A control assembly for a motor vehicle including a bracket; a hydraulic cylinder assembly including a cylinder mounted on the bracket and a piston rod projecting out of the cylinder; and a pedal assembly including a pedal arm mounted for pivotal movement on the bracket about a pivot axis and pivotally connected to the free end of the piston rod at a location spaced from the pivot axis. A sleeve is mounted on the bracket and is journaled on a pivot shaft secured to a fixed structure of the vehicle so that the entire assembly, including the bracket, hydraulic cylinder, and pedal assembly, may be pivotally adjusted within the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle. A slot in the bracket spaced from the pivot axis coacts with a fastener carried by the vehicle fixed structure to secure the assembly in any position of pivotal adjustment within the passenger compartment.
