I am going to be converting my truck to an auto. can I use the old manual pedal assembly and just take off the clutch pedal...but wouldn't the brake pedeal need to be swapped for the wide version??

Any insight??

These trucks didn't have a wide version brake pedal. Like you said, just remove the clutch pedal......

I'm pretty sure all the auto trucks had the same small pedal as the manuals. Mine does and it's a factory auto.

Yep, no wide version for these trucks. Just remove the clutch pedal and your good to go. But you can retro-fit a late model pad onto your pedal arm. The wide pedal looks better that the little one in my opinion.
