Power Brake Push Rod question .... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Are the push rods that run from the pedal to the booster "fulcrum" (for lack of a better word) shorter for '67/'68 than they are for the 69-72's?

My Dad and I were hangin' out this afternoon working on buttoning up the last of the brake stuff and it seems the push rod is shorter than what I remember. In order to get the rod to bolt up to the pedal, then the pedal has to be about half way thru it's travel. I have a set of brackets that came off a 67-68 but am using the 69-70 booster brackets and am thinking we got the shorter rod mixed up and have lost the longer one ... that is, IF there is a difference.

Anyone know if there are different lengths?

Thanks.
