Tilton Overhung – Aluminum & Steel (98-1201) - Manual

Description
The Tilton Overhung pedal assembly has been designed to provide the driver with
the greatest control and comfort from a swing-style pedal assembly. This system al-
lows the mounting of the master cylinders and reservoirs in the driver’s compartment
away from the heat of the engine.
Finite Element optimized pedals provide strength, stiffness, and durability to handle
the most severe braking conditions. Adjustable foot pad positioning allows custom-
ization for different drivers.
The pedal assembly is set up for dual brake master cylinders and includes the balance
bar assembly. This allows adjustment of the brake pedal force distribution between
the two master cylinders. This system can be used to compensate for fuel load
changes, tire wear, and changing track conditions.
The Remote Brake Bias Adjuster is available as an option. This connects to the balance
bar allowing the driver to make balance bar adjustments quickly while on track.
Fluid reservoirs can be directly mounted to the master cylinders or can be remotely
mounted based on your application. It is important to follow these setup instructions
closely to realize the benefits of this design.
installation notes
• The pedal assembly must be attached to a very rigid frame structure.
• The mounting location should suit the driver and also provide a stable
platform.
• Be sure that there is no binding during the full stroke of the master cylin-
ders when the pedal is depressed.
• The balance bar mechanism must clear all obstructions when the balance
bar is adjusted to the extreme right or left-of-center and at full stroke of
the master cylinders.
• If you have decided to remotely mount the reservoirs, select the location
for the reservoirs before starting installation.
• This is a gravity fed system, so the reservoirs must be located above the
master cylinders.
• Attention must be paid to the routing and location of the hydraulic lines.
Avoid heat sources such as exhaust pipes.
• Accurate clutch pedal setup is critically important. Improper clutch pedal
installation and/or adjustment can result in expensive clutch damage
and DNFs at the track!
