Frame mounted Master cylinder

Is anybody on here running a frame mounted master cylinder? I'm have been thinking about trying to do this and wondering if anybody has tried it already.

Oh and with or without power?

Re: Frame mounted Master cylinder

I am pretty sure there isn't enough room to run one. The stock 67-72 trucks don't have enough of a factory body drop to use one. Now i am not 100% sure it can't be done but everything i have looked at wouldn't work.

Re: Frame mounted Master cylinder

actually you can mount a hydraboost system on the frame. No limit engineering will make a kit that is bolt in for it. it is pricey!
