Customer's legs too long

[DaveAAAP@AOL.COM]

  I have a customer with the longest shins I've ever seen on anyone in my 
life.  He has to turn his leg sideways to reach the sustain pedal on a grand 
and has subsequently worn holes in his pants adjacent to his knees.  I figure 
he needs at least 4 more inches to even clear the keybed.
  I don't think an elevated spider would help an awful lot cause then the 
pedals would be too high to be practical.  I'd hate to go through the trouble 
of having custom legs and a longer lyre built if there may be a simple 
solution.  Any thoughts on this subject?
