Dual diaphram brake booster?

Post by junkyardjeff »

Was there ever a heavy duty dual diaphram brake booster used on the 67-72 F250s and 350s,my 77 F350 parts truck has one but the booster rebuilder I use told me it wont work on my 66 and he thought they were available on the 67-72s. If I dont use the frame from the 77 for a car hauler I was going to put the dual piston caliper discs on my 66 and the rebuilder told me the 69 single diaphram booster would not do as good of job with those brakes and I had to use the 69 booster for parts for my 65 galaxie project.

Yes, check out the pic. The left one is the single diaphragm and the right one is the dual. I ended up putting one on the right in my pickup, works fantastic! The one on the left is still collecting dust.

These will only work on the '68 and later pickups, it's a real mess trying to use them on the '67 and earlier pickups. There's an old thread about the subject somewhere, will try to find it.
