Frank, what is the reference to "MO" above? I see you're in WA, does it reference Mail Order or Missouri? I'm in Missouri and why I'm asking.

MO = Money Order

What size is the booster and the master cylinder's bore diameter? And the system is 30% better than what? I assume that's relative to some of the aftermarket kits that don't properly size the master cylinder and booster.

I ask because my 69's stock 71-72 master cylinder, booster, and disc/drum brakes will just about put me through the windshield!

That said, the factory did a much better job than the aftermarket does today. Way too many improperly sized boosters and master cylinders, and "one size fits all" fixed-pressure proportional valves used by default. I like that yours was designed specifically for our trucks, and fits without mods.

The booster is 9" dual diaphram (DD), new, built for our systems. It is 30% more powerful than original OEM 1/2T. Other components are selected and fitted for our specific truck applications, not some universal off-the-shelf car parts. You cannot buy this system in catalogs or web sites.

I have all of the components on hand and build them "to order" when you are ready. Allow at least two weeks, after payment, as I always have a back log of orders I am working on. Thanks, Frank

[B] Yes. For sure. OEM lines, pedal, etc bolt in and go. Old prices good until end of DEC. I am already paying 25-30% more for all components. When you are ready, I will build it. Thanks, Frank [/B

It is a nice improvement for a suburban. 30% more power helps stop the extra weight of the sub. Old prices good to the end of DEC. Thanks, Frank

**PICKMUP** · 12-19-2021, 09:08 PM

Crjpiolt: TTT for you. Any questions? Frank

**PICKMUP** · 12-22-2021, 02:36 PM

speedracer 39: TTT for you. Black only for the 1/2T sets, as shown here.
Let me know if I can help. Thanks, Frank

**too much stuff** · 12-22-2021, 02:57 PM

Do you still have them available?
Thanks…

Yes. Still building complete systems, as shown. I use new adjustable valves and lines on my Drum/drum units. These function as a Dist Block and fit really well. Note 2022 prices.
