Re: Brake pedal problem

Without photos I am still confused. I thought all GM boosters and MC had the same bolt pattern the differences were the diameter and length of rods/arms between the pedal and booster or MC? On my truck I had to custom fab everything but am now on MC #3 with no interchange problems. Linkage can be solved, it might require spacing the booster off of the firewall to gain clearance for rod fab? Post a photo of what you have for pedals and firewall situation so we have more information.

Re: Brake pedal problem

We can probably help you out.Not quite sure if I understand the problem. There really is no such item as a 4 wheel disc booster. They are all diaphragm boosters. (right now, electric ones are coming) Post some pics so we can see without guessing on what you want to do. We sell just about any combination of brackets, booster, MC's pins clevis that anyone would need and if not we have them made.

I agree with Orrie, photos will help a lot. I've seen some year to year changes that cause issues with bolt patterns and rod length but those can usually be circumnavigated with a bit of fab work.
