Brake Swap
Does anyone have swap a F350 master brake cylinder (1.1/16 dia) in a F150 system? Typically F150 has master cylinder 1.1/16.
Have any feedback on this swap? Is it a direct swap or does it take more components to upgraded?
Regards
Ray

It's a direct bolt-in. It won't hurt, altho w stock brakes I'm not sure it's gonna help a whole lot, either.
Factory 1/2 ton is 1 1/16, 3/4 and 1 tons are 1 1/8, which what I think you meant to type above.

Um,............ yes, I've read the page and done the exact same swap myself. All it involves is bolting on a new booster and master cylinder, a total of 6 nuts are involved. Anytime you have to replace the master cylinder bleeding the brakes is required. The stainless steel lines are purely optional.
Yes, it helps, but if you're not having a problem w/your current setup I wouldn't mess w/it. If you need to replace one of these components, might as well go to the larger stuff.
