Re: Brake Booster
Firewall, and don't forget that it needs extra bracing.

Re: Brake Booster
The brake part was built in 1985, I will see if I still have the sketch. The booster was added, I basically bought the booster and made a cardboard template to add it to the original piece. I based my design on some of the aftermarket ones but rounded the piece that holds the booster to match the booster and increased the gauge of the steel to get rid of the cross braces the kits have. I will see what I have or take some basic measurements. If its a two wheel drive application you will need to add residual valves since the lines end up below the wheel cylinders.
