Installing a brake booster..

[68F250]

I've never had good luck getting the self-adjusters to work consistently. When the pedal starts getting low, I spend the time to jack up each wheel and adjust them manually. Ya know the notches on the star adjusters are too fine for a regular brake spoon, a screwdriver works better.

They don't seem too bad,now,...but without the power boost,I tended to stay about 15 car lengths behind and never really stopped that hard...With the booster,any slight pull shows up easier...I definitely think it's a much added improvement for the money...

One other question,...my brake light in the dash doesn't come on...But then again,I don't know if the bulb is burnt out,either...Is it supposed to go on with the key like the other accessory lights to let you know if it works or not?

Yeah, the brake warning light should come on along with your other warning lights in the prove-out (start) position.

...Burnt out bulb...

Let me rephrase that. The brake warning light should come on in the prove-out (start) position like your other warning lights do with the key on.

It could be a burnt out bulb or somebody unplugged the switch to turn the light out. It's tricky how Ford wired it, that's why there's two connections at the switch.
