Well here is my dilemma. My brake pedal works just fine but wiggles fairly easily to the left and right, kind of like a bushing is shot. I cant say for certain though as I have no idea about how this thing goes together. The other problem is that when I depress the clutch it often hits the high/low switch on the floor. I cant imagine that the pedal should come that close to the dimmer switch and that makes me think that maybe the pedal is bent. If someone has a diagram of how the three pedal setup is put together I would surely appreciate it. Personnel experience with these problems would be even better.
 
yep there is a pinch bolt/piviot bolt and then a steel tube that a set of thin plastic bushings rides on. all of this feeds threw the pedel. not super bad to figure out. pain to work on under the dash tho.

Yep, just get under there, it's all pretty intuitive. Just realize that if you have the manual, spring-type clutch linkage that the clutch pedal can have a considerable amount of tension on it if you go to taking things apart.
