C60 dual master cylinder
 
3 Attachment(s)
I didn't think they made a dual master cylinder for the 67-72 c50 and c60 trucks. I found one yesterday on a school bus. Here are some pictures... Does anyone know if the can be swapped to a c50 or c60 truck?

If I am not mistaken, that's a school bus thing. I think school buses with hydraulic brakes have to have split hydraulic systems, and there is a dual master with a separate vacuum booster for front and rear axles. Take a look under that bus and that is what I think you will see. As far as using on a regular C/60, it wouldn't do you much good if you only have one booster. Now for a disclaimer:

Don't fool with the brakes on medium or heavy trucks unless you have had adequate training and know exactly what you are doing! No offense to anyone, just consider the consequences if something goes wrong.

BTW- isn't it cool that the school bus cowl/chassis models kept the '72 style up until '83?

I would love to have that bus. That thing needs a Cummins swap.
