Need help on Wilwood Dual MC
 
Just got the Wilwood dual master cylinder for converting power brakes to manual. What brake pedal rod have others used? My power booster rod does not work. 71 C10. I've searched this forum with no clear answer.
Thanks,
Phil

If I understand the question you went from booster to non booster right?

If so then you need a shorter rod. I just went to manual to booster and had to get a longer rod.
The rod for a booster is threaded on one end to adjust it with a clevis attached to the other end.

The manual is only threaded on the brake pedal end with a bullet nose on the other to mate against the master cylinder plunger.

Yes, that's it exactly. The master cylinder only came with the rod, no clevis or bolt.

Wilwood makes a rod for this. I've got one. It's called "Wildwood Brake Pedal Pushrod Kit".... Threaded and fully adjustable. Works on manual or power brake boosters. It's Wilwood part number 330-13914. Hope that helps...
