Can anyone identify my brake booster? If not can any one recommend one? This one has plastic collar in rear and has broken and doesn't work any more.

Re: Power Brake Booster
Surprisingly, i found out recently autozone also carries replacements for the factory boosters for our trucks as well. They are advertised on their website. It is remanufactured by a company by the name of Cardone. I'll try to attach a picture from their website. This one is for a 1960.

Re: Power Brake Booster
I can't tell from that view. I need to see the backside more. Either way, someone has fabricated a custom bracket to mount the booster to the firewall. This was likely done to cover the holes for both the brake master and clutch master on the '60-'62 Chevy's and the '60-'63 GMC's, and provide a mounting place for the booster. I agree that the master appears to be original for a '64-'66 truck.
Very nice looking engine/engine compartment.

Re: Power Brake Booster
Here an old picture and have no idea what year the picture was taken but it was before the booster was installed.

Re: Power Brake Booster
Which bracket are you referring to? The one in this thread, or the ones that I sell? Maybe send me a PM so we don't hijack this thread any more.

Re: Power Brake Booster
The master is a stock piece. The booster bracket seems to be attached (welded)at factory. The rod has been modified to work with this booster and i want to try to find a manufacture that makes it. I will try to get more photos and post asap.

Re: Power Brake Booster
I had a power brake booster very similar to that in my Chevelle, that came out of a 64 GM intermediate (I don't remember which one, sorry). It factory mounted flush to the firewall just like that does.

Part Number is 54-73537. $154.00 includes $40 core charge. Listed under 65-66 Chevy C-10 Pick up. It comes with brakets already installed. As you can see i painted the booster and the brakets.

Re: Power Brake Booster
m455sx, just to clarify, you bought a 65-66 c10 booster and bolted it right up to your 62 c10? no mods or anything needed? Longer rod or anything needed? clutch rod, etc?

Re: Power Brake Booster
Nope, the rod appears to be out of the same year truck i guess( look at the begining pictures). All i did was pull the bolt shaped pin and everything went back together. The rod has threads for adjustment and i adjusted until all play was taken out. I am not sure if the rod in the pictures was custom made or from same year truck?

Re: Power Brake Booster
The brackets on that booster look similar to the ones used on the '67-'72 truck boosters. For those asking, this booster will not bolt up to an original firewall without drilling holes.
