also you will notice the newer style master cylinder(sp),but is that a newer style booster.the reason i ask is cause the brakes are very touchy and a cant afford that many bandaides for my forhead,you think its possable they just used the stock porpotiong valve for manual drums?

very nice truck love to see more and better pics of it. as for the brake problem there was a thread about this kind of problem yesterday . it is possible the proportoning valve is bad but if you have the problem where it grabs and stops on a dime suddenly after a fair amount of travel its possible the rod from the booster is out of adjustment for your truck.

Make sure the wheel cylinders aren't leaking. That would cause your breaks to grab.
