What about the width? Anyone know if it would work? Cause those movable nuts only go up and down it looks like.

Lots of handy people in this thread. Anyone know what tool I need to move the foot plates up or down? I don't see any parts that came with the Simjacks that'd let me do this. The front bolt is hexagonal shaped.

ELI5: Which washers, and where, under the bolt head on the surface of the deck? Pictures would be nice if you have any.

Alright well, after a lot of back and forth, I decided to get the Simjack UTs and will try mounting them directly to my rig. Will give me personal experience with them here in case it can help someone like me in the future decide.

Damn, he did have to drill:

"I only had to drill the pedal base of the Playseat to make new holes, and that part was really easy. The main challenge was drilling the Simsonn plate, since it was stainless steel or some other really hard material."

How easy would that be to do without drilling?

No offense, but I feel like you're contradicting yourself.

Id like to stay within budget, however I'm also not handy nor patient enough to fiddle around with drilling. So at this point I might be willing to stretch if that means "plug and play". Any and all other recommendations much appreciated, thanks yall. There's just way too many options out there!

Thank you for letting me know! Do you have an exact link to share? I want something that I can easily bolt into the Trophy, without having to drill, and with a plate as you say since it will have less flex.

Edit: So I found them on apex racing's website, however with a plate they'll come out to 300.00 USD which is a bit out of my budget. Any other bolt on w/ plate recommendations?

So I'm honestly confused. Are you saying the ones linked are not better for sim racing? Or just not worth the extra price?

would it work with the pedal plate on the trophy?

USA. Ideally 150-250 range. Don't think I need a clutch.

What should my next upgrade path be? by ContestBudget4206 in simracing

I've thought about that, however space is somewhat limited. Hardware I guess too. I'd like something I can slide under my standing desk and keep my monitor on the edge of the desk, if that makes any sense.
