Today I visited a client who was just around the conrner of a renowned USA garage in the south of Holland (Blazerparts.nl) . So I popped in and had a chat with the owner about my brake problem.
to him my problem has a simple solution; use the master brake cylinder and booster which came with the front end...
he says the new set I have is for a Nova or something small, but not for a big 'ol truck
as a trip down to memory lane, or back to page 1 of this thread, you can see I got a MBC and Booster with the complete crossmember..
I'll be installing it on Friday and hope it works as promised.
here the pictures of the set as I picked it up....5(!!) years ago?? OMG..it's about time to be driving it right
