I am looking for a frame mounted brake/clutch set up. This is for a 1937 Dodge truck, ax-15 5spd, 360 motor, 4 wheel disc brakes. I have spent a lot of time looking and reading, but still unsure. I have found them from $300 to $600. I have no problem spending the money on one if it is a good quality. I found them at speedway, progressive automotive, and other places. I want to do it once. Has anyone had a good bad experience with one or the other? Lets here what ones you have used.
Does anyone have any experience on these. Looking for input from the crowd that just got back from the car show.
I have looked at some from Pete and Jakes, they have, a 1" bore and a 7" dual diaphragm. I have seen some with a 7/8" bore, what is needed. I have 4 wheel disc, and not finding the info I need.
Anyone can chime in when they want to, I can have this conversation in my head. I called progressive automotive today ant they told me that the booster and master cylinder is a standard 7" booster out of a corvette, is this true? What year vette? Is there a certin clutch m/c I can use? I can build a mount for this stuff. What about pedal ratio?
I'm running a new corvette master cylinder, no booster, front disc brakes and read drums. The corvette style master is what you want. I'm running a wildwood master and a hydraulic throughout bearing. I pieced together a kit from welderseries.com for my pedal assembly and am very happy with the results. Total cost of assembly was under $ 100. I had to add to the main bracket to accomadate for the clutch master cyclinder I can get you part numbers if your interested
I would take the part numbers. I never thought about looking at welderseries, for the pedals. What did you do for bushings?
Try ECI. He has several designs including a narrow set up, master cylinders one behind the other, if space is a problem. He'll want to talk to you to ensure you get the correct set up. I'm using one in my A. RB
