The stock ones seem to be easier, I'm only replacing what needs to be done. Engine harness was about 100...front light harness is around 190, should be good to go after I finish them.

With the kit everything has to go, and be refitted

Got the prop valve from Inline tube, will let ya know if it is correct on Mon, mine had some rusty fluid inside, but should work if ya need it...65 for the valve from Inline

The reservoirs are not coated on the inside, but I have had good luck with their coating over the years. Don't think anything will hold up if soaked in brake fluid, but an occasional spill on it doesn't seem to affect it

Re: PO has me PO'd

FYI and way late, but the booster/mc combined are cheaper than seperately?? I bought a 3/4 ton dual diaphram booster and master {helps with the "hard" pedal most of us 4X4 guys get} for like $130 ready to bolt on at Autozone, and my NAPA price matches to Autozone, and or Checker, for a second FYI?? I hope it helps, but you already have your parts, so sorry for the day late help?! Looks good!
