The brackets are not that costly and will make a good source of = information for future repairs. It is always easier to replace with a longer set if there is room and = the feel will not change that much like a shorter lever will.

I have three broken pedals off of two uprights. One = is a Grinnell console built in the mid-40's with two pedals. Both have = been broken about 1'' behind the horn. The length of the pedals are 8 = 1/2" with 5 1/8" from horn to center of pin. The other is an old = upright, the right pedal broken just behind the horn. Dimensions; 9 = 1/2" long; 5 9/16" from horn to center of pin. All three pedals have = been brazed or welded. What's the chance that they can be repaired and = how difficult is it to weld/braze them? What about replacing with new = pedals? None in Schaff fit the dimensions of either size pedal. Any ideas? Joy!
