Re: Power Brake/Booster - vertical/frame/firewall

Yeah thats a real neat wiring harness espcially with the quick disconnect modules.

Think I'm just going with the 16 circuit Rebel Wire kit. Owner (forget his name) is super nice and helpful.
I think as he described it its just two wires on 1 circuit go to the brake switch ......
and anotehr circuit (1 wire? power ? ) goes to the flasher/relay for turn signals etc.

I would have though adjusting the frame mount pedal (too high) would be easy enough to just cut/short and/or bend the actual actuator/pedal arm.

Guess whatever way I go will have to plan on manual adjustment fixes.

Looks that way.
I wasn't looking for that clean firewall look with my truck at all. My truck will be driven in bad weather sometimes and down there on the frame, the master and booster gets exposed to the elements. Also, I just like it up where it's got easier access. So for me the choice was easy.

Here's my engine compartment:

Good lord.
I can only hope mine looks half as good as that when done.

Nice job sir.

If you decide to go with an under-floor setup, PM me. I have one on the shelf.
