55 F6 Master cyclinder & Booster options ?
Getting ready to go thru my brake system on the F600. Keeping it as stock as possible My power booster is separate from the master cyclinder. Not familiar with how the F100 is setup.
Do they make a bolt on replacement with the booster & master cyclinder connected?
This truck will never haul a load again, maybe a couple fat guys in lawn chairs, in a parade. Thanks

The booster in my '52 F5 is the same, remote vacuum housing, but close to the master. It should be either a Midland or Bendix Hy-Power, both of which can be rebuilt if you are wanting to keep it stock. I know theres a few companies in the States that do this, and I've found one in Canda as well. Depends if you want to upgrade master cylinders to a split line system, or stick with the old single line.

Let me tell you how important a dual master cylinder is with our old trucks. When you are relying on old wheel cylinders and stopping the weight of our thick metal babies. I went with a later model big truck booster and master cylinder combo to aft of the original area with a homemade bracket similar to the ones for an F1.
