1963 power brakes moraine

[towrecker]

well as for the rod so to speak what i was looking at doing was what bendix did in the ford setup i know i said ford don't kill me but it is i kid you not a carbon copy of the chevy the whole mount and lever system it uses a flat bar instead of a rod works the same way ...the back off or slack is adjustable in the output rod of the booster with gm tool number j-7723-01 to set the play to the master 63 chevy truck shop manual page 5-39 it also says the power have a reduced pedal hight and travel but does not tell what it is ...i messed with my idea tonight whit nothing more than a guess ...stomped the brakes at 65 mph locked the thing down effortlessly i set the pedal just a hair above the gas feed but 20 min before i set it to the top like the clutch and the brakes were hard and stoping was a hard feat all the parts and all have been swaped replaced you name it on this truck i think some part is the wrong one and throwing all the linkage out of line with the pedal up where everyone thinks it should be ...will try and get pics of it in the am an and off the truck maybe thats it mixed parts but the only man to know for sure has passed on by almost 5 years now i miss him in so many ways ...anyways its got 967,879.7 miles on it can you blame it been coast to coast ran in business since new and i run it too but it is sometimes given a brake i do have 3 others that are a lot newer but close jobs i use it i will try and get a pic of the scratches on the dash by the cluster one for everytime it rolled over another 100,000 who likes scratches ...i do the dash has most memories connected to it i painted the whole truck fixed all rust and dents left the dash as is people fuss at me for that too i just grin and say nope i like it they shake there head and walk on kinda funny right ...ramble ramble ramble thats just me sorry i wish i could just go to town to the chevy dealer and just order a whole power brake setup new in a box ...well i can dream can't i while i am at it i will just order a new 63 c-30 too you have to laugh at that ...we all wish ....
hope veryone has a great nite and gets to church safe in the am
