55 corvette brake pedal stop

[Al M.]

My brake pedal uses the brake light switch bracket as it's stop which I think is correct. Over time and use, the stop has been tapped back to a point where the piston came out of the master cylinder. Is this just a matter of making sure those bolts are real tight or am I missing something here. Was there ever a rubber stop on the bracket to cushion the return? Haven't seen one in any diagrams or parts books and the metal on metal doesn't seem right.
