Default Re: Accelerator foot rest

What is the proper adjustment for the “rest assembly (accelerator foot” )Ford part #9716)? [common name :”mushroom.”].

On my Model A the accelerator cap plus rubber cover is 1/2” higher than the mushroom height. It is comfortable to rest my right two toes on. I can easily roll my right foot to the left and smoothly operate the accelerator pedal.

On my 1939 Ford pickup the mushroom height is level with the accelerator spoon. I’m having trouble placing my foot correctly and smoothly rolling my foot. I Intend to free the adjustment nut and make a change.
