Pull it apart and put stiffer springs in it. They are simple, short coil springs which can be found in many hardware stores. Don't worry if the springs are too long, you can easily cut them to fit. don [|]-(_)-[|]

Or take a look at Jens Schumachers page about the Logi brake pedal. http://members.xoom.com/_XMCM/JensSchu/LogiCorner.htm I have a short rubber hose inside the brake spring to give it a progressive feeling. It is slightly shorter than the total movement in the pedal to "simulate" the movement of the brake pads before they hit the brake disk. -- /M Lindqvist Spamguard: Remove .ajabaja in e-mail don hodgdon <[email hidden]> skrev i diskussionsgruppsmeddelandet:88fmko$ace$[email hidden]... > Speedy Fast wrote in message ... > >Any ideas on how to get increased resistance on the brake pedal of the > >LWFF?

The suggestions already given are probably better, but I have a cheap and nasty solution using 2 squash balls. Cut a hole into the top and bottom of the squash balls (about 2cm in diameter). Now force one at a time over the brake pedal so that both of them are wrapped around the stem of the brake pedal. Looks pretty ugly, but works like a charm. Andrew
