Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..

Started working on mounting the hydroboost for some shownuff stopping power...
Had several hurdles to jump to get there...in the 1st pic you can see the old single res master compared to the hydroboost...the hydro is for a early 80s c30...
The 1st issue was the longer snout where the pushrod is...the hydro was way to long ..
In the 2nd pic you can see I made a 3/4" aluminum spacer and a 1/4" steel nut plate..this extra inch is almost good....ill have to shorten the pushrod some but itll be real close...
In the 3rd pic you can see that the orig master also angled down...I'm not sure why they did that but both trucks are that way...so I had to straighten up the plate to get the hydro level...I cut out the old master mount from the firewall plate and welded in the new nut plate...
