Lunar Newstar 58 seating/throttle issue (1 Viewer)

[acting_strange]

My only complaint about my Newstar is the position of my right foot and the throttle pedal. My foot is pushed right back and after a time this is causing some serious pain.

Does anyone have an idea as to how I can relieve the pressure on my ankle.

I thought about screwing a wooden block into the fllor to raise my heel height and therefore lower the angle??

Many thanks

Derek

I had the same prob with my hymer

I fixed a 1 inch thick timber board to the floor under the carpet
Works a treat :thumb:

Hi there, I used to have a Lunar Newstar 58 but didn't find the throttle position any different. It is slightly higher than on my new Van but not a lot in it.

Ah - I see that ChrisBoyo got there before me - something a bit thicker under the carpet is a possible solution - you can experiment until it feels ok

Wear high heels.

Wear high heels.

But they might give me varicose veins Brian

Alright, high heels and blue surgical stockings.

Not forgetting the suspender belt so you don't end up like Norah Batty.

Get the missus to drive?:thumb:

Go to a scrap yard, and find a mercedes. Take the pedal cover off your truck, and bolt/screw the merc pedal cover to the floor, a clip secures it to the pedal arm. You then have a throttle pedal that sits on the floor.

Look for a 'pedal pad' online to have a browse at them, but buy one from a scrappy for a couple of quid to ensure you can adapt to fit.
