Air Brake Set Up
What does everyone know about putting air brakes on my 69 250?

Re: Air Brake Set Up
Why would you want to do that? seems pretty impractical? I am assuming you are talking about air brakes like in a big rig.

Re: Air Brake Set Up
if your talking abotu big truck air brakes i wouldn't try it. too much work and mods would need tobe done that it might become a impossible task. power brakes are a breeze though. you need the booster with the brackets. bolt the booster and brackets on and put the master cylinder back on the booster. you will then also have to put a intake vacuum source to the booster. oh and when you put the booster brackets on it will create a larger hole than you needa way to block air from coming in around the brackets. no one wants a draft in the winter time.
