4wheel disk brake booster
« on: November 02, 2018, 12:37:47 AM »
 I've added turbo Tbird  disk brakes to my 77  turbo pinto.I want to install a 7" brake booster but the original  non power brake master cylinder  mount studs are in the way. I've tried a stud remover but they won't budge Anybody removed them? I don't want to just cut them off.Thanks

If you are converting TO power brakes you have to install the parts behind the dash , done this before , there is a plate behind the firewall you have to change , and install the plate that holds the booster , you have to remove the steering column to remove the brace to the fire wall to the dash , it’s all tied together, takes about two hours for the first timer
