Toss the single and upgrade to dual mater cylinder. Easy to do. I transplanted a 68 D100 system into my 66 W100.

Appreciate all the detail of this thread. Great image. Does anyone have any pics of the fender side? Assume there is a hole or mount for the J hook/bolt. . Its actually a long carriage style bolt bolt with a hole drilled through flat square part to run a cotter pin or long split pin. Square hole ne...

Adding to previous comments regarding Full Time Four Wheel drive trucks 75 to 79 the Dana 60 King Pin style front axle was an available option in W200 trucks. It came with drive flanges that can be easily removed and locking hubs bolted on. Same front axle/hub style as 89/90 Cummions powered trucks....

Nothing wrong with the 8 3/4. Disc Brake kits for it are available. Look at cars for that era with 8 3/4.

Do believe it may have been an option and covered in supplemental diagrams in FSM.

I used an early 70's Dodge Dart/Plymouth Valiant style booster. Need a minor tweak at firewall seam.
Had to fabricate the arm to hook from pedal to bellcrank.

Here is an excerpt from the '69 - '70 Service Manual. I'm not sure if it is the same. Quality re-prints of the factory service manual are readily available at a reasonable price.

One of the transmission lines has blown and searching the web and many forums I can’t seem to find a solution for a different setup or so...

Will take aftermarket, good condition used, doesn’t matter. Also need a new proportioning valve so any suggestions on where I can get that would ...

The manual shows the back up light switch has a orange wire coming in to it and black wire leaving and going to the back up lights. The truck has a orange wire hanging right next to it (pictured in right arrow), but it's a single wire with a single female terminal. Anyone have a photo of their swit...
