Brake master

Post by Jim100 »

Could someone who has done a front disc swap post the correct brake master cylinder part number?
Disc front drum rear and no power brakes.
Thanks,
jim

Wouldn't you be better off with power brakes with the discs?

I'm sure I would be better off with power brakes. I guess I was thinking of trying it without as its set up now. Is adding power brakes as simple as getting a vacuum booster and sticking it on there?

I used RAYBESTOS MC36307 on my '63 that I just finished my disc conversion on. It is listed as a one year only for a 72 100 series truck, and 70-75 B, C, & E bodies.

The number given above corresponds to RAYBESTOS MC36460 Listed for 73-78 D/W100,200,300, Ramcharger, and 74-78 C-body.

I couldn't tell you what the difference is they both are 4 bolt masters, 1 1/32" bore, Disc/Drum style. Earlier one is listed with 9/16 20, and 1/2 20 outlets. The later one only lists the "Primary outlet" as 9/16 20, and is $4 dollars cheaper on RockAuto.

I'm happy with mine so far (I've only driven it about 2 miles). And didn't have an issue with the rear discs I used either.

I can't say exactly on a 61-71 cab, but on the later trucks I had to do some fab work on the push rod. I didn't have access to donor truck for the correct parts.
