power brake ?

Post by OLE69F100 »

I am trying to get a parts list for my disc brake swap but I could not find the answer to one of my questions. my question is do I need to buy the booster for the same year donor truck or can I use the booster from my 69' and just get a disc brake master cylinder if there is such an animal. I searched but could not find the answer. My 69 currently has power drum brakes.

The booster is the same (works the same) you just need to get the Disc/Drum (disc front / drum rear) master cylinder for the 69 booster you have.
I just did this a month ago using a 68 booster setup out of a f250 that had disc front and put the power brake set up in my 69 Highboy with Drum/Drum brakes using the power master cylinder for Drum/Drum :thup:

If it Looks good and Works good then it's ok by me. Everything has its issues from time to time...
