I don't.. Once I have the GM Clutch Master all I have to do is fill the reservoir and do a fluid volume test. If the Volume of fluid pushed in one pedal stroke equals that of the Dodge than I'm golden... Worst case I can retro the Dodge clutch master to that of the GM Clutch pedal...

Brake Master cylinders work the same way: "Disc" is a low volume / high pressure Master cylinder, "Drum" High Volume / Low pressure which is why you cannot run a disc master with drum breaks...

I don't think you are being a jerk but come on, you should know me better than to be a hack by now!

It isn't being a hack, there are several different pressure/volume master cylinders in chevy and dodge apps. Just trying to save you some time man.

Thanks for the seat pics. How much room does it look like there will be for the rear passenger leg room? My 14 year old son is 6' 1" already.

Re: Custom 1987 GMC Crew Cab Short Bed

Well, back when I had started this build I had ordered an Atlas 3-1 gear reduction transfer case to install behind my G56 6 speed manual trans which will allow me to run my GM Passenger side third member Dana 60 front end. After this project lost momentum about a year ago I cancel the order.

Today I put in a new order for my Atlas transfer case and because I have have liquidated a few projects and had a few extra dollars to throw around I decided to have them build this thing to be bullet proof! The delivered total was just over $3100.00. After purchasing my tires a few days ago that ran $1800.00 I'm beginning to feel like this truck is really going to get done in a fairly short time frame (And that my pockets are getting really light... SCARY!)

The next few days I will begin what will be the best part of this build, the installation of the 2007 24 Valve Cummins Diesel!

Stay tuned my forum family!

Re: Custom 1987 GMC Crew Cab Short Bed

I picked up a hydraulic pedal assembly today. Man what a pain to pull! Hope that one at your wrecking yard works out. Sounds like a really good deal!
