Then retro fit them into whatever vehicles. Right now a 78 scout ii, and a 97 s10, and another 1985 s10.

The main issue is altering the brake pedal to get the correct ratio.
many times i will get the entire pedal assemby from a hydroboosted vehicle and then either use the brake pedal or measure the distances from the 'swing to pin' ratio and copy that info.

But to asnwer the qeustion, therye all the same, its just the 'bling bling' thats different.
