Adding Power brake booster and master cylinder to 1969 D100

Can I get some recommendations on adding a Power brake booster and master cylinder to 1969 D100? I see the clutch cylinder is really close. Gonna try this before going to disc brakes to see if this is something I can live with. Any help greatly appreciated
Thanks
Gerald

Recently acquired 1964 W200

Recently bought a 1964 W200 and it’s looks like there is 54 years of grime on it. It sure looks stock. Did the 1964 W200 ever come stock with a 383 engine? This also has a 4 speed on the floor tranny. Again appearing stock. 1st gear (granny?) is useless, so I start off in second. Can you tell me mos...

Re: new box power steering

This truck steered like a tank and was literally undrivable with manual steering. It would take 3 attempts backing out of my garage going back and forth until I was aimed right. I said previously within one foot the ps kicks in. It’s a few inches in reality. Any motion at all I have ps. I can back o...

Re: new box power steering

When this was first hooked up, the steering was not centered and I could barely turn left. I was inside the cab at the wheel on the lift and he corrected the steering by adjusting the Pittman arm. This then centered the steering so I could turn left as easy as I could turn right. I’ve driven 200+ mi...

Re: new box power steering

I received the cpp kit. I have a mechanic friend that looked at the kit, didn’t ask for any instructions and said give him 4 hours and he’d have it done. Within 3.5 hours he loosened up the steering wheel, cut the muffler pipe that was in his way (he welded it back), removed the old box and installe...

Re: new box power steering

After 10+ hours of addt research I’ve ordered the cpp kit. Expected to arrive next week. Even if it’s hard to turn at a dead stop it’s got to be better than what I currently have. Anyone here install a pressure regulator that enables the power steering at a stop and then would be adjusted (manually?...

Re: My tiny house build

Interesting thread. I’m on the other side of the fence and to many, not all, a mortgage can make you wealthy. There are more millionaires due to real estate than any other means. And they certainly did not pay cash for all their properties. I happen to like mortgages as I have over 50+ with another ...

Re: new box power steering

I’ve noticed the complaints with the CPP power steering boxes in which the wheel was tough to turn standing still. There has to be a power steering box off a similar car that can be adapted to fit our sweptlines? I had an old 34 Chev Rat rod with 6BT 12 valve cummins that needed power steering and I...
