Re: i was/ am little stumped as to how the vacuum assist works on the breaks, but however they work, they don't. i was simply looking into just using the cylinder and booster from another 3/4 Ton 70's truck, vs repairing these.

Nice truck! The 292/SM420 should be a great combo, that's what I'm putting in my C-30. (It has a 283 now) Enjoy it.

Welcome to the forum :D

Looks like you've found a good truck to build, and you've done a nice job so far.
