What is involved to remove the power brake booster on a 1968 GTX to convert it to manual brakes???

if you have drum brakes the master cylinders are the same. the firewall plates are different and you'll need a push rod.

you can make the plate with a template from the foam rubber gasket that the vac booster has

an adjustable brake rod from master power brakes is about 30$ and very good piece

OK Thanks I have the 4 piston bendex system work good with new pistons and SS sleeves but very heavy so going wilwood race brakes (MP number)
Where do I get this rod??
how do I put bolts in fire wall to hold master to it with booster removed?

I do have the drum brake spindles of a 69 RR so I'm good there.

I was told my master would still work.
See master has a kit with rod, mount and master ??

you cant buy the rod all by its self you got to buy a kit
im in same boat needing just the rod and adpter plate already have new master cyl.

Well that adapter plate says no good for power to manual just 4 bolt to 2 bolt???.

I made a plate from 1/8 steel drilled 4 holes to mount to the fire wall and drilled 2 holes for MC

all holes need to be drilled in the fire wall

when I removed the vac booster there was a foam gasket with all the hole but the 2 for the MC that I drilled

I bought just the adjustable rod from master power brake for mine so it should be avalable by its self

you are looking at the wrong adaptor,that is to replace a 4 bolt mc with a 2 bolt one

sorta the asame thing but not

do you need a couple pics of mine?

I can send it to your email

in the master link that is the right rod but wrong adaptor plate

you dont need and adaptor plate..you need a plate to renforce the firewall so it wont rip thur the thin wall when stomping on the brakes

I even bumped my 4 bolts up to 1/2 and used 2 allen head bolts and lock nuts for the mc

should be able to use the 4 holes that the booster used and just drill the 2 for the mc

Thanks does the power brake booster unbolt from under the dash??

Ok...

What you need is the Manual brake firewall plate for your body style and year - got one at Moparfest last year for $20 from the guys from Quebec. They had a bunch.

Your iron 4-bolt m/c will bolt up to this plate but if you switch to an aluminum m/c then you need the adapter.

You can jimmy your "power" plate to work. Cut a piece of metal to fill the big hole and weld it in place. Line your m/c's bottom holes up with the bottom holes in the plate and drill two holes to match the m/c's top holes. Measure and bore a hole big enough for the m/c's flange to fit through.

You should also try to find the rubber boot that seals the back of the m/c.

The brake rod is sold separately - try Mancini's for either the standard or adjustable. Or find one off any Mope and make your own adjustable.

you should come up and help me!! LOL!!!
OK that sounds like a plan when I get my motor assembled and tranny gone through I'll look into it.
Thanks everybody.
