So, my truck (95 DD51T) had badly worn pedal pads, or in the case of the gas pedal, the pad is missing completely. However, I have found a replacement for the clutch and brake pedal pads... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FQ7KK2 You have to cut a rubber tab off the back, and turn it sideways, but it fits like it was meant to be there. I'll throw up some pics later, and let you know if I have any luck with a gas pedal pad.
Every one of the trucks I see has no pad on the gas pedal. Was wondering if they actually ever came with it to begin with. Love to see pics when you get them. BTW I actually just found these for a Suzuki Samuria https://www.amazon.com/Royal-Crusad...er+pedal+pads+for+suzuki,automotive,82&sr=1-5 I might spring for em just to see if they fit. Look very close.
I would not be suprised if they're exact replacements, I imagine they reused the pedal assembly on many vehicles. At that price it's not much of a risk. Good find! I ordered a set of those from ebay (cause cheap), I'll report back once I receive them.
So to add more info. I see from the parts diagram that the rubber pedals for t he clutch and brake both bear the same part number - 4975158J00. I also noticed that the accelerator never had a rubber pad. Amazon shows a lot of matches for a set of pads that come up when that part number is used. I'm getting the Samuria set anyway, just to see if they work out.
I *think* the OEM part number for the gas pedal pad that will fit is 49451-80100. I'm going to order one of these, just to find out.
Well, I got the "Samuria" pads from that ebay purchase, and while they look like they'll fit (I can't check because the truck is sitting at the shop waiting for the lift removal), they certainly aren't oem quality. Also received the OEM one I mentioned above, and it looks like a much better choice (Again, haven't fitted it up yet). In my opinion, so far the best option seems to be the OEM gas pedal, and a set of those pads I mentioned in the original post for the clutch and brake.
My Samuria pads are on the way, get them sometime at the end of the month. So will see then. Vans are always a bit different too, so they may work great for one and not the other. So cheap, why not try anyway.

My van has no rubber on the gas pedal and doesn't show one in the parts catalogs I've looked at. Why are vans always different? <sigh>
My 2002 van did not have rubber on the gas pedal either, only on the brake & clutch pedals, and they were different patterns. My new 2022 spresso has rubber on all 3 pedals, but the "drive by wire" is a pain to get used to. The gas pedal to throttle body is by electrical connection only (no cable or rod) and seems to have a stepper motor on the throttle body so cannot be 'feathered' as you can with a cable or rod connection and there is a lack of "feedback" to your foot. Just my opinion but newer is not always better. Maybe I'm just old & grumpy. Fred
In the parts catalogs for the 9th gen vans (91-99) theres not even a part # for the gas pedal. Trucks may be different, dunno. Fred, you are correct, newer is not always better.
I don't think the OEM pad I listed above was ever for a Carry/Every. I think it's listed as a Samurai/Vitara part #, but I'm pretty sure it will fit. And it may be an "Old man shakes fist at cloud" moment, but I too like my vehicles as simple as I can get them. (Cheap is also good. )
So I got my pads in , I'll post up pics later. They are made with a very soft rubber but fit the clutch and brake pedals fine. The pad for the gas pedal doesn't fit and it ripped when I was trying to put it on. These are really cheapy pads and they come out of India. I suspect they are cast from old tire rubber melted down in a pot on the street and poured into a homemade mold of the originals. I don't expect them to last. They look ok so far. Keeping the old ones in case they fail or rip apart.
