YAHOOOO, POWER BRAKES,
Well I spent the better part of the day putting power brakes on my 79 F-100, Boy was it worth it !!!
I ran into the same problem as that other fellow, What with the master cylinder holes not fitting my lines , well just the one on the rear, The nice young man at ABC auto let me borrow their flanger and now I have POWER BRAKES, To go along with my POWER STEERING,
MY PEDAL IS LOWER TO THE FLOOR THAN BEFORE IS THIS NORMAL ??
Had to rig a block on my brake lights switch because of that,
Thanks for letting me toot my own horn!!!

Benford, I did the same power brake conversion on my 71 4x4. The brake pedal ended up lower to the floor in a more user freindley position which I really like.

YAHOOOO, POWER BRAKES,
Yea I guess as long as it stops thats the main thing,
I think I'll get out there today and take a look at the pads on it, Might get to do a brake job YIPEEE,
CAN YA TELL I LIKE WORKING ON MY TRUCK?
Just wish I lived closer to the wrecking yard and parts stores,
coz I have to make at least three trips for every task.HA
Oh yea I'm gonna tell you all something that happened to me yesterday, But don't tell anybody OK,
I was pumping up my brakes and thought hey this would be easier if I started it, Forgot it was in gear (granny low wouldnt ya know it), I just bumped the starter and it took off right into my storage building, NO BRAKES, PANIC PANIC finally pushed in the clutch, HA , and my stepsons girlfriend walks by about then and says "good job" OOOOOOOH Little smart (removed by admin),
No damage tho kinda bent my hood hinges , took me awhile to get that straightened out , my building is pushed back some but it's ok too,
BOY WAS MY FACE RED!!!!
