1967 was the first year for dual reservoir master cylinders for Passenger Cars, F100/350's, Bronco's & Econolines.

Thanks Bill. I thought I had read that in another of your posts on this subject.

The information superhighway is a wonderful thing. Back in '02 when the internet was a young adult still finding it's way, I decided my '64 needed disc brakes (this was after nearly crashing into a semi trailer which had pulled in front of me assuming I could stop as quickly as modern cars). After I cleaned the seat, the decision was made.
I put an Aerostar front end into the '64 after seeing that their GVW was similar (this was before the cool CV front ends). I also had a booster and MC from an '81 F-150 which went in as well. I burned up a set of pads and rotors on my first trip home, because I didn't know about the adjustments available between the booster and MC.

Thanks James.

This is good to know about, and confirms the needed adjustment Steve (ultraranger) outlined earlier.

When I pull the trigger on this upgrade, I'll post pics and details in my other thread in this forum, "My new truck" https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...new-truck.html
