Disc brake Non-power master cylinder question

I've installed a manual disc brake master cylinder on my '64 C10. Do you have to swap brake pushrods when doing this swap,or is the one on my truck the right length and bore size??

Re: Disc brake Non-power master cylinder question

It kind of depends on the master cylinder. Is the current pedal and rod assembly able to reach the necessary travel of the piston?

I used the 'corvette' ms/cyl and bolted it right on. If your pushrod is too long your brakes will drag when driving.
