REMOVAL OF THE HUMP ON THE DRIVERS SIDE RIGHT HAND DRIVE ONLY.

Brilliant.
Biggest restraint to putting an order on a quartermaster View attachment 7881556

Is there a picture of one installed with the pedal placement? It’s looks nice to increase passenger footwell in a LHD, but, if it creates a wide crevice that you cannot actually put a foot in, without it being under the brake pedal, I'm not sure why one would want it.

I was cleaning out the mud in the driver's footwell today. I was quite surprised at the thickness of the sponge between the metal floor and the dead pedal itself.
While it is OK for me, I take @trobex point that it is not comfortable for some.

I wonder if a bit of trimming and replacing the hump with a generic dead pedal would be a solution?

So long as the message makes it to the wider community! Buyer Beware!

I would recommend you test drive a vehicle before buying, could've saved all of us a lot of anguish.

5ft9 is the average height of an F1 driver , and they are the world's best performance drivers.

But are you around their weight? about 70kg is close...some of us might have to remove a hump

74. Ran a 400m race last evening. Power to weight is everything

 

[Tazzieman]

400 meter?

Yep, one lap of the track

As he's still with us despite the long miles of discomfort, I have to accord some respect to @trobex and offer to help mitigate the monstrous hump in his Grenadier. Therefore I'm offering $20 American toward the total cost of his GrenX Milk Crate Delete Floor Mat order.

@trobex - PM me your Paypal address if you're going to pull the trigger.

'Tis the season...

he's gonna get his crocks stuck under the brake pedal and die, and it'll all be on your head.

At least he won't be complaining any longer!

Nobody would be seen dead wearing crocs in Queensland. They all wear pluggers (flip flops , or as we say, thongs) . Very dangerous for driving, but then again they have real crocs so they're used to taking risks

RM Williams $4k. Plus they are guaranteed to remove humps

100%. Like Trobex, I detest the foot well in the RHD Grenadier. It will affect individuals differently but I still think they could have done a better job with it out of the factory.

I have about 30000km under my belt now and am living with it for day to day driving. For decent trips >3000km I remove the flooring and replace with my own matting which is more user friendly.

I think the Grenx floor option is a step in the right direction for those that it annoys.

 

[Mudnut]

I have put about 1500km since I have removed the floor piece. No difference to noise, or heat that I can tell. Has been driven in hot environment in Far North Queensland. Hump didn't bother me until I re-injured my back, and the sciatic pain was amplified by the Left foot being elevated. Just placed closed cell foam in the low spots. Added a rubber backed carpet scrap over the metal intrusion. It is held in place by the plastic panels that I just tucked it under. Rubber floor mat placed on top. Both feet are level now when on the floor, and no more pain in my leg. There is room to fit my size 12 boots next to the brake pedal to stretch out also.

Mudnut,

Your Mod is Outstanding!

That's what INEOS boffins should have done in the Factory,

This is a touring Wagon should have a biggerfuel Tank!

Cheers


PS Now you can run over Cane Toads Hahahah!

GrenX are advertising their new RHD replacement floor mat that reduces the hump significantly, I am going to go to their site and pre order one now.

Just ordered, the mat looks great in their pictures, and reduces the hump by what looks like at least 50% the cost is about $400 au.
It also looks factory.

Thanks for that Steve, I really appreciate your reply and bringing this solution to everyone's attention. The GrenX hump reduction mats look like they may significantly reduce this issue.
However, I feel Ineos should be free issuing these to buyers experiencing issues. I've had my Quartermaster now for only 4 weeks and always concious about trying to move my left foot when driving. These GrenX mats should be standard. There's a lot of bad press out there about the RHD hump.
What does Ineos think?

I’ll be interested to hear what people think after driving with the GrenX mats for some time.

Everyone is different of course, but after more than 30,000km of driving my Grenadier, I can say that it has the most comfortable driving position of any vehicle I’ve owned.

I was initially worried that the inability to stretch my left leg out would be an issue, but after a full day's driving I find myself much more comfortable now than I used to be in my previous vehicles, including Toyota Fortuner, Nissan Navara and Subaru Forester.

I was talking with the manager of a 4WD training company recently. He own a Grenadier, and he told me that he finds the driving position particularly comfortable.

I think it’s also important to spend some time adjusting the seat height and position, together with the steering wheel height and reach, to find the best setup.

I hope you end up finding a solution that you find comfortable.
