brake pedal question...?

Post by LANCE65 »

When converting from manual to power brakes do you have to change the brake pedal? Thanks

No. The brake pedal is the same for all '68-'72 trucks, regardless of whether it has manual or power, disc or drum brakes.

the only difference is in the booster which is

67 is a one year only style booster since the brake light switch is different and 68-72 is all the same

If you want i can post a link to when i upgraded my 67 with the pwer brakes if nothing else itll give you a idea off what needs done.

Nope, that wont work.


Take a look at the following link. Once again, Keith has done all the research for us.
