Abstract: A pedal assembly includes a mounting bracket and a pedal arm having a lower end carrying a pedal and an upper end having a pivot forming a laterally disposed pivot axis. The mounting bracket includes first and second lateral components which are formed as separate components and secured together to laterally capture the pivot therebetween such that the first and second components support the pivot and the pedal arm is pivotable about the pivot axis relative to the mounting bracket. The first and second components are each preferably molded of plastic and each form a laterally inward facing socket for receiving opposed ends of the pivot therein. The laterally outward end of each socket is at least partially closed and a spring member is located in one the sockets to resist lateral movement of the pedal arm relative to the mounting bracket.
