I think there are 5 or 6 pins. I straightened them with a screw driver and I had no problem with the gas pedal afterwards.

Well fixed the problem. There are 6 pins, and two were bent together into the same hole. Took the whole gas pedal out using 10mm socket wrench and an angle attachment. Then bent the pins back with some needlenose pliers. Thanks for the help.

Now to return the sprintbooster back to northridge. No way, no how, does it fit in 2011s. Don't try it!

Default New model for 2011s

Just wanted to add, that today, Sprint Booster released a new model to replace the old one that will now fit on all JKs, including the 2011s. Just ordered, I'll update when I verify it fits!
