master cylinder/ booster advise

Post by hank the yank »

hi i have a non mopar master cylinder and booster on my 71 satellite i have been told it could be from a mustang!

I am having problems with it leaking and want to replace it all to either mopar or one that could be recomended by you guys.

It is now running discs up front and drums on the rear.

any help appreciated.

i'd junk the booster and get mopar master cylinder for a disk braked car
get a manual master cylinder pushrod and retaining rubber

your brake peddle should have 2 holes in it use the one that isn't currently in use

its further up so you peddle gives more leverage

simple

less to go wrong

works ok on my car

yours is heavier but your brake discs and drums are bigger

if you have problems with rear wheel lock up

use rear wheel cylinders off a 94-9? Dakota truck
