Shorten the pedal hub tube approximately 1 mm (0.040") by filing the hub at the location shown in Figure 5. Remove metal only from the tube that
is a welded part of the pedal. Do not shorten the sleeve which is positioned through the pedal hub.
When shortening the pedal hub, be sure that an equal amount of material is removed around the circumference of the tube and that the modified end
is parallel to the unmodified end. Overall length of the pedal hub after modification should not be less than 60.27 mm (2.373"). After shortening the
pedal hub, remove any burrs or sharp edges with emery cloth and ensure that the pedal assembly is free from any metal chips or filings.

Inspect the plastic pedal bushings for damage. If they are damaged in any way, replace them with new bushings, GMWDD P/N 15594358.
