Broken Brake Booster Bracket

I had a MBM 9" booster and bracket kit on my 72. It worked fine for almost a year and then the bracket broke off the firewall. I have never seen this before and was wondering if anyone else has had this happen. It certainly put the thrill back in to driving.
I replaced it today with a stock type 11" kit that has much heavier brackets. It stops much better but isn't as exciting exiting the freeway.

Re: Broken Brake Booster Bracket

Another example of why I like to stick with the oem stuff. GM spent a lot of time and money to R&D these trucks.
