I can't tell if mine on my M38A1 is correct. I looked at the manual and have the long free play adjusted out of it. Now my pedal only moves a couple on inches when I press down on it. It seems to stop ok, I was even able to screech the tires in one stop test.
Does any one have any video showing the travel of their break pedal?
When I get home tonight I will try to take a video of mine.
How far does your break pedal move?

Vertical free play about 0.5". Corrected from 1.5"
Sideways more than an inch and you should start looking at a bushing kit and washer adjustments. Theres some data in the downloads on the pedal fitment.

I corrected my typo above. What you have will work ok. How much side play or rock does the pedal have?

Then you are good to go. Is your clutch pedal free play set correctly at 1.5"?
