I would like some brake help...

The push rod from my booster is not long enough to reach what it pushes on in the master cylinder. The opening in the master cylinder so in about 1 1/2 inches. The threaded portion of the push rod is only about 1 inch long. How do I fix or change this? There are some pictures of both

The master cylinder does not match the booster. It looks like the booster rod is made for the stock master cylinder.

Can the rod on the booster be replaced?

That pushrod you are running is NEVER to be extended out like that. That pin is for a shallow bore master and you have a deep bore master. We have a long pin for deep bore applications. Call me and i will send you one. Thanks Bro!
