Question Brake booster..rebuild?

First post and so happy to be here ....sniff*

I have a 72 LWB with front factory disc brakes. My brake booster has a HUGE vacuum leak comming from is ...so bad it makes it idle rough now!! Has anyone heard of swapping in a '73-up brake booster? Something about a direct bolt in?

If not, is it possible to rebuild the booster...maybe a kit? Any help or advice would be great.

Thanks in advance....love the forum!

uh, I'm pretty sure they should swap in up to 78 or even as new as 87. Wait is there anyone out there with one of those parts interchange books that could confirm this??

Someone?
