Calm down Captain, I only asked because on 2-12-21 you stated you were 21 days out from shipping current orders , and since you have had no further orders, I was hoping you were caught up and maybe has some extras. Just put me on the list for your next run. Thanks

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
I wasn't getting excited, just simply trying to clear up a common misconception on this forum on how I operate. What makes you think that I haven't received any more orders? I receive orders 24/7 and I currently have 15 of my '67-'72 standard booster brackets on order. That is in addition to the other 25 products that I fabricate for the '60-'72 GM trucks that I also have orders for. If you want one of the '67-'72 standard booster brackets you will have to place your order. I will send you a PM with that info.

Any more available for the 68

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
All 26 of my products are available everyday. This is how I attempt to make a living. Would you like the powder coated one I mentioned above or would you like one in bare steel? One in bare steel will currently be a 12-14 days wait.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
I can vouch for how good this product is as well. I'm using this bracket and the hydroboost plate.. pay the $9 for the powder coat unless you're painting it body color.

Captian do you have a webpage with all of your products listed?

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
MeanGreen72C10 Thank you for the kind words. Sorry no I still do not have a website. I am still working 80hrs/7 days a week every week every month. Maybe in 2-3 months. I do have a list of all of my for sale threads here in the forum. If you send me an email to captainfab454@hotmail.com, I will be happy to send you that list.

Here is a link to my new website and online store where you can see and purchase all of the products that I fabricate for the '60-'72 GM trucks.

I have one of your bracket and having problems with the pedal going almost to the floor before I have brakes. Do I need to do something with the pedal ratio like drill a new hole if so where? Love the bracket looks great.

Captainfab 04-15-2022 09:23 PM

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
I replied to the PM you sent me about this same issue. Did you secure the valve inside the proportioning valve when you bled the brakes? Most people drill a new hole on the brake pedal 1" down from the original hole for a better brake feel. I'm not sure on the '67-"72's if that hole may already be there. I am more knowledgeable with the '60-'66's.

Glad I checked back in so see the latest. I viewed the website & will definitely keep it saved to share w/others that come to me for tech/parts advice on their classic GM trucks.

Well done sir....

Thanks for the compliment. I can use all the help I can get. Right now sales are virtually nonexistent.

Looks like you have some good product. If I’d have known of your page I’d have got the rear disc brake conversion for my 72 K5.
What I’d love to find is someone who could repro the passenger side bucket seat brackets…why they don’t is beyond me. For what dudes want for them used, seems like there would be a market for them.

Wanted to give a shout-out to Captainfab and his power steering adapter. I haven't installed it yet, but seeing all the reviews, I know that won't be an issue. I received the package and noticed that all parts and hardware are vacuum sealed and protected from the elements. Easy ordering from his website also. Thanks for the product!

I've been selling all of my products here on the forum for over 13 years now in the classified section. I've only had the website online since March of this year.

Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it. I do the best I can at fabricating products that I would put on my own truck. I was hoping the website would make it easier firvpeople to see all of mynoroducts and place their order, but there are still many that seem to have a problem figuring it out.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
It has been brought to my attention that two of my designed brake booster brackets, That I have been selling here in this forum since 2009, have been copied by Right Stuff Detailing and are being marketed as their own design. I used to sell my booster brackets to them at a wholesale cost, but they have not purchased any from me for over 4 years. Now they have stolen my design and are marketing them on Summit Racing.

https://www.summitracing.com/search/...oster-adapters

I in no way gave them permission to copy my design of brake booster brackets. This is just a dirty trick on their part. I still fabricate and sell all 34 of my products on our website. Here is a link.

https://customfab-cda.com

I am just a one man business working 80+hrs/7 days a week every week every month to try and make a living so I can pay my bills and buy food for me and my wife. I just wanted to post this on here to let everyone know that what they see on Summit's website are not my products. They are counterfeits. If any of you who support me in this and wish to let Right Stuff or Summit know your feelings, I would certainly appreciate it.

Thanks
John

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
Hey @Captainfab , I need to replace a bad power booster in my 67 Suburban. I was looking at a 9"dual diaphragm from 1987 Gbody (and your bracket)
The booster looks like the one in you 1966 pictured in you web ad. https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...t=1884&jsn=640

Do you think it will work?

Captainfab 03-11-2024 08:14 PM

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
Sorry but I can not say for certain since I do not know what the mounting stud pattern dimensions are. I do not have that particular booster on the list of compatible boosters that comes with every booster bracket.

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
It`s cheap enough, I`ll order one and check the spacing. I`ll be getting back to you,
THANKS!!!

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
I received that booster through Rock auto. It was an option for GM "G" bodies 1982-87. 9" dual diaphram. Measurements match your adapter. PM sent to order an adapter !!!

I bought one of your 67-72 booster bracket. I’m just now installing it. I have a new 9 inch booster. But I mocked it up today. It all fits good. But after putting colomn in, The shift lever hits booster. I have a list of boosters that you put in box. I have a new 8 inch I’m going to use. Curious if you have a new updated list of boosters that will fit with auto column. I was getting ready to order a couple more. Thanks Steve

Re: Power Brake Booster Adapter Bracket
 
Sorry but I do not have a definitive answer that you are looking for. Over the past 15 years a few people have had an interference issue with the column shift on the '67-'72's, but no one has ever let me know just what size booster will work. I am not in the business of building trucks for people so I have no way of finding that answer on my own. My specialty is the '60-'66 trucks. I do own a '68 but it is a 4 speed truck. I know what works on a '60-'66 with the factory auto column shift. I would have thought that a 9" booster would have cleared. A 10" will on a '60-'66.
