Re: My hydraulic clutch and Hydroboost setup

Yukons template is very cool, he mailed me one a couple of months ago.
The brake linkage rod that was on my hydroboost was about 1/2" to short. The brake pedal side fit the factory(69) hardware it was just to short. So I cut the rod in half, threaded both sides and added a coupler nut and two jam nuts and I was on my way. the down side was I threaded it to 7/16 diameter so I wasn't able to just go the hardware store to get the coupler nut, I had to go to a fastener store but otherwise no big deal.
I got my Hydroboost out of a 82gmc 1/2t 2wd diesel
I picked up the whole truck for $200, it was converted to a gas sbc, th400
I also used the front crossmember/discbrakes and rear end.
the thing drove 50 miles to my brothers place too.
