Re: Building the Beast, aka Donkey!
Thanks!
Picked up a power brake pedal setup from UNCLE. Yeah, yeah I know that's a pretty weak thread update, but that's all I got right now, ![]()

Re: Building the Beast, aka Donkey!
you know, i saw this in an article of Truck Builder mag recently - is the hole for power brakes in a diff't position than non-power? They had to re-drill the pedal when moving to a bolt-in brake system from SSBC.

If you have manual brakes, I think you have to change the pedal bracket and brace on the inside. At least that's what it's been told.

Re: Building the Beast, aka Donkey!
Soooo that's why there's a different/ghetto rigged brake pedal in my truck. Explains everything. Now if I could figure out the reasoning behind all the other boneheaded modifications the PO did to my truck...
The beast is looking good, a little progress is better than no progress at all.

Re: Building the Beast, aka Donkey!
Here is my crazy idea for a truck like that. adding a Longhorn bed, Dually rear end and cutting a set of stepside fenders for the bed flares. Then add a big block and a 5 speed. Talk about long!
