This is gettin fun!

More parts!! I ordered my brake booster/master cylinder kit and brake lines from www.performanceonline.com last week. The pre-bent lines are dropped shipped so I got them today and should get my mc/booster later this week.
I'm expecting my rear fuel tank in the next couple of weeks.

Congrats!
What kind of MC/Booster did you go with? Standard or something special?

It's basically standard. It's all new from POL. It comes as a complete kit with prop valve, brackets and lines.

Fit was fine, you will need to bend a little here and tweek a little there but nothing should come up short.

I think the hardest part was loosening up some of the hold downs, I went slow and it took a couple good hours.

I took a look at those - be sure and let us know how you like it, and take some pics of it installed if you get a chance.
I haven't really saw a booster that I just really liked yet.

Re: This is gettin fun!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...the smell of new parts.
Don't you just love getting packages with truck parts?
I think it's better than being a kid at Christmas.

$329 as you see it in the picture(pre-assembled). The brake hoses were $35 for the front pair and $35 for the rear.

Re: This is gettin fun!

Nice upgrade indeed. You'll be pleasantly pleased. Same as Boraxman, mine came from Inlinetude - great fit with minimal tweaking. Take your time, take one piece off and install the matching piece. Has the master already been bench bled?
