Brake Pedal Height

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mercury Villager. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Measure distance from brake pedal pad to floor panel. Pedal height (released) should be 7.68-8.07" (195-205 mm). If pedal height is not within specification, loosen push rod lock nut. Turn push rod until pedal is within specification. Tighten push rod lock nut. See Fig 1 .
