Power Brake Pedal - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So after seeing 64shortbox’s brake pedal I had to give it a go. I received a Camaro pedal arm and cut the pedal off at the back of the pedal from the arm.
Cut the stock pedal off the stock arm and prepped everything to weld out.
Now I just have to find a local welder.

I may have it tacked on the truck to make sure it's straight though.

Great job Master Chief! That's exactly how I did mine too but I was lucky since I was able to do all my work at my job and get paid for doing it. I guess being a Hull Tech some 40 years ago came in handy. (do they even have that rate anymore?) Oh, and thanks for your service. I only lasted 3 years, 11 months and 19 days - I got an early discharge when we got back from a West-Pac. Definitely an experience - we ran into a Taiwan oil tanker while going through the Malacca Straits. Came close to sinking the tanker and took out the bow and the forward Peak tanks of the carrier I was on. Yes it was an adventure.
