Another brake Question
When you install a booster/mc from a 73-up donor,why do you have to extend the pushrod? It does not make sense to me because the throw of the rod should be the same-not increased.Has anybody NOT extended the pushod? Did it work fine? I dont care about the bumper,cause I can fab one if want to.Thanks

Re: Another brake Question
The throw does stay the same, however, if it has to reach further to meet the piston, then you'll have to lengthen the pushrod.
While I am unfamiliar with the master cylinder from the ugly years, it sounds like the piston is concave, and you have a further distance to reach. |
