Rudder pedal bearing block location.

I have the Control Approach rudder pedals and was wondering how far forward people are mounting the rudder pedal blocks. I’m 6’2” and have then temporarily installed in the most forward position. Can anyone give me any reference to where they installed them and how tall they are and if it’s a good fit? Thanks

I have the same question. I am 6 1", those of similar height, what position are you finding to be most comfortable?
 
I am 6'-1" and went with the pedal blocks in the forward holes.
Some shorter pilot friends find it too far forward but I'm OK with that.:D

I took the advice of Eric at Support and put supports under spar and got in.
I’m 6’ and found the middle seat and middle pedal positions felt good for me. It is personal preference.

Clamp the blocks in place and tie some thin rope (heavy string) on the pedals so you can push and pull. Hop in and see what feels right.

In neutral position, the RUDDER pedals should be tilted towards you. And the brake pedal should be tilted away from you to match the angle of your foot.
