Mating power booster to pedal??

[MASTERBrian]

I've seen a lot of the threads regarding these disc/power brake conversions, so not really looking for that. I have the discs done, I have most of the brake lines replaced, the last step is mating the booster to the brake pedal, but I can't decide which route to take, so looking for some input.

I have captain fabs bracket, I also purchased on a '90 c1500 dual 9" diaphragm booster and master with a ssbc proportioning valve.

I think the best route to go is to cut the heim end off the booster and weld a 7/16-20(?) Bolt to it so I can just use my factory heim end and connect to pedal that way. I believe this is what others are also doing. My question really is, does the brake pedal push rod need to come out of the booster to weld it, or cam it be welded while still in booster? If I'm not mistaken the entire booster has to come apart to remove these push rods so that seems like bad idea. If I'm also not mistaken there are seals inside that I'd imagine you don't want to get too hot, so how are you guys welding these?

I've also thought about all thread and a coupling nut and threading, but even though I've chased lots of threads I'm not sure I've ever really used a die to create a threaded rod and worry if I screw up the threads I'm hosed.

My favorite is the build where the op used a 2nd pedal bracket to create a 2nd pivot for the booster, but I'm not sure I can find one of these at a salvage near me.

Btw....I'm on a 1960 c-10. I'm taking my tank to welder tomorrow to get fill neck resoldered, so I'll ask him about welding as well. I thought about getting myself, but my welding skills aren't perfect and I don't want to overheat the rod and damage my booster.
