Re: 1969 GMC.. right off the farm
I got my booster/MC/prop valve in as well.
I messed with the booster bracket a bunch, adjusting the length of the threaded rod. Question: am I supposed to lose some brake pedal travel with the booster install? For instance, the fully 'relaxed' position of the pedal does not sit back against the stopper pad that is in the cab for when it was manual brakes. I messed with it a bunch but I cannot get it so that it initiates engagement with the booster if I have it set that far 'back'. Instead, it now slightly hangs forward towards the firewall. There is plenty of room for me to push the pedal all the way to get the full 'throw' of the booster. Just wasn't sure if this is common to lose some range of motion when switching to power brakes?
I don't have any specific pictures for my question, but here's some pics of mocking it all up
