Power Brake Conversion (Clarification)
I've read this thread in the FAQ section.
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=163387 (It wouldn't let me post in that thread so I hope I'm not breaching etiquette by starting a new thread??) Farside847 has done a great job explaining this conversion however, I think he failed to account for how stupid I actually am..... ![]() He indicates that, "the old pushrod for manual brakes, its quite a bit longer than the power brake one". This would make me think that you'd need a new pushrod. I would assume this would come from the donor truck? I know DUH! but just looking to confirm. I'm looking at doing the conversion on a 1970 Chev C10 with a drum/drum setup right now. A few questions hopefully some of you guys who have done this can help me out with: Parts List 1) Does someone have an exact parts list that is required for this conversion? I'm thinking this would be all thats needed but if I'm missing something could you let me know please? Parts needed: Power Booster from 67-72 donor truck (DT) Shorter pushrod from 67-72 DT Brass fitttings, hose, clamps for vaccum line. Quick sidebar 2) Can you use the booster from a 73-87 truck? Would it be a direct bolt on? Would the shorter pushrod from a 73-87 work in the 67-72? ![]() Thank you.
