63 power brakes - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I recently purchased a power brake booster and mastercylinder for my drum brake 63 PU. The truck is equipped with standardard brakes only, not power.
The actuation rod coming from the pedal is a straight shaft with a rounded end that fit the end of the old mastercylinder. The new booster/master cylinder has a short eyebolt end that barely makes it to the firewall. Do I need to ship it back, or is there some adapter available? I hesitate to fab something due to the shortness of the eyebolt. Ideas?
