This is a first of its kind- a complete bolt in kit designed to work on 1973-1979 Ford F100, F150, F250 and F350 trucks that gives you a later model Super Duty vacuum power brake booster and master cylinder! You will get significantly more fluid pressure and volume coming out of this master cylinder. This kit installs in about an hour and requires no cutting or permanent modification. It works with your existing brake pedal.
The master cylinder has a 1 3/8" (1.375") bore. Your factory master cylinder likely has a bore of 1.00" or 1.25". Assuming you have the larger 1.25" bore, the factory bore size has surface area of 1.227 square inches. A bore of 1 3/8" has surface area of 1.485 square inches. This makes for an increase of about 21% of fluid coming out of the master cylinder as compared to your factory one, with the same amount of brake pedal movement. In other words, goodbye squishy/low brake pedal!
This brake booster is a whopping 11" dual diaphram. That's about as big as they get! Most factory 73-39 brake boosters are either a single 9", a single 11" or a dual 9". This Super Duty booster is a dual 11" so it provides roughly double the boosting power as compared to any of the factory options. You will notice a strong increase in stopping power! Valve cover clearance is tight with this- it does not work with tall valve covers!
when you place an order I will need to know what type of booster your truck came with originally so I send you the right mounting bracket. There were three main types- a booster with a long straight rod, a cantilever booster which had a lever system, and then a booster with an angled and offset rod connecting to the brake pedal (this last one is most popular for 1979 models). Please message me and let me know which your truck had. If you are unsure, send me a couple pictures of your booster and brake pedal bracket.
