Brake Booster Compatibility - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BOZO · 03-13-2010, 04:42 PM

I am converting a 69 to power front disk brakes and would like
to use what I have on hand. I have a booster and master cylinder
from a 1975 3/4 ton 4X4 (Delco-Moraine unit) which I would
like to use. Has anyone ever utilized these parts in a 69
1/2 ton 2wd truck? I realize there may be fabrication involved,
but I can fabricate easier than I can spend money.
I also have a MC/ booster unit from a wrecked 99 1/2 ton
2wd that I can use also. If this will work any better I would
like to know.

The 75 should work. They should have the bracket on them. You will have to mess with the rod. I would check and see if it works first.
The 1999 should work also.
