Hey padresag,

Thanks! I have a vacuum line that comes off of the power steering pump, the old booster has he same set up so just going to transfer the lines. Yeah the hinges were probably excessive but the front door hinges were more practice for the barn door hinges. I kept getting better at making them hahaha. Saving a bit of money and getting to play with the lathe. I have another set of hinges I plan to do up really nice with full length brass bushings on both sides
GM used the same hinge pin and bushing for 50 years side doors and back doors

I ran a GM hydro-boost set-up when I had my Detroit in my 64
Captfab makes a nice little adaptor to mount them and will give you more brake than that car booster will for your 1 ton
